The house of God, built by his hands,
Triumphant through the ages stands
Upon the rock forever fast,
Defying Satan’s fiery blast.
O house of God, home of my soul,
Blessed shelter while the ages roll;
Let me here forever hide,
Till I’m safe beyond the surging tide.
O house of God, O house of God.
The Lamb of God, himself the door,
Has covered sin forevermore;
His life to build this house he gave,
That I would be no more a slave.
O house of God, home of my soul,
Blessed shelter while the ages roll;
Let me here forever hide,
Till I’m safe beyond the surging tide.
O house of God, O house of God.
O house of God, that holy place,
Where beams the light of heaven’s grace;
Within thy courts I long to stay,
Where all is bright eternal day.
O house of God, home of my soul,
Blessed shelter while the ages roll;
Let me here forever hide,
Till I’m safe beyond the surging tide.
O house of God, O house of God.
The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Are one with all the ransomed host,
I now shall fix my eyes above,
On Father’s house, where all is love.
O house of God, home of my soul,
Blessed shelter while the ages roll;
Let me here forever hide,
Till I’m safe beyond the surging tide.
O house of God, O house of God.
