Starshine Singers - The House Builders Lyrics

There was a man who built a house,
He built it on the sand.
He built it quick, he built it cheap,
No survey and no plans.
Then when the gales began to blow,
The mighty waves to crash,
His house was shattered, swept away.
His hopes and dreams were smashed.

There was a man who built a house,
He built it firm on rock.
He built it strong with thought and care
And proper building blocks.
Then when the gales began to blow,
The mighty waves to crash,
His house was solid as a rock,
His home was made to last,
Was made to last, was made to last:
Was made to last!
