Where hast thou built thine house, Thy soul's eternal dwelling ? Upon the treacherous sands of sin, 'Mid floods and tempests swelling ?
Oh, build upon the Rock----the only sure foundation ; On Christ alone, the Corner-stone, the Rock of our salvation !
2. What wilt thou do when storms Upon thy house are beating ? [sands When from beneath, the treacherous That held thee are retreating ?
3. Wait not until the floods, With final shock appalling, Shall come------and thou canst never save Thy ruined house from falling.
