8655. On The Rock Of Ages

1 Are you building on the Rock of Ages?
Are you building on the sinking sand?
Are you building on a sure foundation?
Will your house the rain and tempests stand?

Refrain:
Are you building, building on the Rock?
Are you building on the Rock of Ages?
When you answer judgment’s call,
Will your building stand or fall?
Are you building on the Rock of Ages?

2 Are you building for the life eternal?
Are you firmly set on Christ, the Rock?
Is your hope on solid ground abiding?
Can you stand the awful judgment shock? [Refrain]

3 Are you building on the Rock of Ages?
Are you building for eternity?
Are you going to the home supernal?
With the angels then to ever be? [Refrain]

4 Are you building for a home in Heaven?
Are you careful how you lay each stone?
Is your hope and faith in God unchanging?
Have you built your house on Christ alone? [Refrain]
