Build This House Lyrics

1. All I have and all I am is Yours;
there's nothing that I have on earth
that doesn't come from You.
I lay aside my pride and worldly worth;
To serve You is the greatest thing
that I could ever do.

For unless You build this house,
I am building it in vain.
Unless the work is Yours,
there is nothing to be gained.
I want something that will stand when Your holy fire comes;
something that will last,
and to hear You say 'well done',
giving glory to You, Lord,
glory to You, Lord.

2. So easy to desire what others have,
Instead of seeing all the gifts that You have given
me.
So help me fan the flame which You began,
And burn in me a love for You that all will clearly
see.
