This week’s featured song story comes to us from Hope Darst. We’re excited to share with you the story behind her song “If The Lord Builds The House.”
“I know that every time I’m singing these words, I’m declaring something that I’m putting into both my spirit and into the atmosphere. When my God builds something nothing can tear it down. I can’t tear this thing down, the enemy can’t tear this thing down. If I’m building my life on a firm foundation, no matter what I face God will stand firm and He will hold me in the midst of that.“ – Hope Darst

“If The Lord Builds The House” Lyrics
I’ve built up my own name
But the walls couldn’t stand
I’ve trusted my own strength
But it was sinking sand
So I put my ruins
Into Your hands
And watch You restore them
Like only You can
Cause if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
The bricks may be weathered
Through storm and through fire
But what God holds together
It stands firm every time
Cause my life is anchored
On this solid truth
That whatever God’s building
No it can’t be moved
Cause if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
Oh nobody
As for me and my house
We’re gonna serve You Lord
So here’s the keys
Come on in
Everything we have is Yours
As for me and my house
We’re gonna serve You Lord
So here’s the keys
Come on in
Everything we have is Yours
Oh
Here’s the keys
Won’t You come on in
Everything we have is Yours
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can (tear it down)
Nobody can tear it down
(If the Lord builds the house)
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
|There’s nothing that can shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
I said if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
