531. We’ll Build on the Rock

G7    C                      F      C
We’ll build on the Rock, the living Rock,

On Jesus, the Rock of A-ges;

G7 C                  F       C
So shall we abide the fearful shock,

     F    Dm  C    G   G7  C
When loud the temp-est rag-es.

               G   C
We’ll build on the Rock,

G7 C  G     C  G   C
We’ll build on the Rock;

      E                  C7     G
We’ll build on the Rock, on the solid Rock,

Dm C                G7 C
On Christ, the migh-ty Rock.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
We’ll build on the Rock, the living Rock,
On Jesus, the Rock of Ages;
So shall we abide the fearful shock,
When loud the tempest rages.

[Refrain]
We’ll build on the Rock,
We’ll build on the Rock;
We’ll build on the Rock, on the solid Rock,
On Christ, the mighty Rock.

[Verse 2]
Some build on the sinking sands of life,
On visions of earthly treasure;
Some build on the waves of sin and strife,
Of fame, and worldly pleasure.

[Verse 3]
O build on the Rock, for ever sure,
The firm and the true foundation;
Its hope is the hope which shall endure,
The hope of our salvation.
