"House of Praise"
On the rock of our faith in Jesus Christ
we have gathered
as one holy nation
What the builders rejected has become our life -
has become our
sure foundation.
And on this rock He'll build a house
Where He can dwell for endless days,
and it will be a house of praise
And it will be a house of praise.
From the praise of his people He builds a wall
That protects us from evil-whe shall never fall
The peace of the Spirit descends like a dove
It rests on each person, unites us in love
When we pray we will raise through the roof of this house
An offering
of sweet sacrifice.
Like incense to God our praise rises to the heaven
To show him our love for His Christ.
Many will see and hear of His grace
And the mercy He's shown will amaze
And for our Lord we'll build a house
And it will be a house of praise.
