I'm Gonna Build My House on Solid Rock

Right Jim, today we're gonna learn about house building

I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
And I won't wake up to a nasty shock
To find nothing but a pile of rubble

Don't wanna build a house on foundations that will wobble
Don't wanna build a house with any dodgy bricks
Don't wanna build a house that will shake like a jelly
I want to shout aloud, of this house you can be proud

I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
So I don't wake up to a nasty shock
To find nothing but a pile of rubble

Jesus said "Take my words and put them into action"
Make these words he said foundations in your life
Build with care or else your house will surely tumble
And it's not a clever trick to own a heap of bricks

I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
I'm gonna build my house on solid rock
So I don't wake up to a nasty shock
To find nothing but a pile of rubble

Cool house Burt, what did you use for the foundations then mate?
Wet sand Fred
But surely you added some cement?
No
Not even an incy, wincy, widdly bit?
Nope, you can't beat plain old sand
This house'll stand forever
I don't think so! Ohh
Oh, eh, ow, ohh

Jesus sad "Take my words and put them into action"
Make my words, He said, foundations in your life
When the river comes and crashes up against you
You won't get washed away, instead you'll cheer and say

Oh yes I built my house on solid rock
Oh yes I built my house on solid rock
And I won't wake up to a nasty shock
To find nothing but a pile of rubble

Oh yes I built my house on solid rock
Oh yes I built my house on solid rock
And I won't wake up to a nasty shock
To find nothing but a pile of rubble

Let's start again shall we?
Ok, where do you want this cement?
No, not there
Oh, deary me!
