A Firm Foundation

The winds can blow,the earth can shake
   and floods can wash away
All things not rooted in God's love,
   they have no power to stay.

Build your house upon the Rock
   It is the safest place.
It is a firm foundation
   poured out by God's grace.

Poured by love and set by grace
   in Christ and His commands.
A house that's built on Jesus Christ
   all things it can withstand.

Let your roots grow strong and deep,
   put total trust in Christ.
You'll find your heart is filled with peace,
   and love, and joy, and Light,
