For what will a man give for his own life houses or money or land
There's a way that seems right to you - but in the end it leads only to death
Come unto Him all ye weary - come and find your rest
CHORUS:
Consider the cost of building a tower - it's a narrow way that you must come - For to do the will of the Father - is to follow the Son - to love Him more than father or mother - to love Him more than even your own flesh - to give all that you are,
for all that He is - this is the Gospel according to Jesus
Many will say, "Lord, Lord" on that day - look what we've done in Your name
"We've prophesied and performed many miracles - and Lord, even demons obeyed"
But He will declare unto them - the most terrifying words of truth. He'll say,
"Depart from me, ye workers of iniquity for I, I have never known you!"
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
"Oh foolish man, how you build on the sand - trusting in your goodness to save!
For when the rain falls, and the flood breaks the walls you will be swept away!
But blessed is he who builds on the Rock - who takes Jesus as Lord to save!
For when the rain falls, he will endure it all - standing firm in His grace!
REPEAT CHORUS
