I Built My House

I built my house
On the rock of believing
Thankfully receiving
The gift that's given me
I built my house
As an offering for living
Swore in the building
It's slave I'll never be
I built my house

Oh I know, oh I know
Life is coming after me
Oh I know, oh I know
Love is coming for me

I built my house
From a thousand different journeys
The faces and the singing
And the joy I came to know
I built my house
In the angles I imagined
With the tools I could fathom
And learned to love it so
I built my house

I built my house
On a hill above the water
Where the southern sun can find me
And wake me from the dark
I built my house
For the mercy of the morning
The light of the dawning
The beating in my heart
I built my house
