Long before we loved You at all
You were on our side
You looked down and saw our plight
how things weren't right
You took on our fight
Died to put things right
If you do not build the house
We labour in vain
If you do not give us life
We'll drown in our pain
If you do not fill our hearts
We will never be new again
If you do not fill our minds
We'll never see change
You're unfailing in Your great love
Ever there for us
You give perfect peace
You see to our needs
We hope in Your great name
If you do not build the house
We labour in vain
If you do not give us life
We'll drown in our pain
If you do not fill our hearts
We will never be new again
If you do not fill our minds
We'll never see change
If I don't place my trust in the truth You say
How will I prevail?
If I don't follow You, where can I find truth?
How will I bear fruit?
How will I bear fruit?
How will I bear fruit?
If you do not build the house
We labour in vain...
If you do not build the house
We labour in vain
If you do not give us life
We'll drown in our pain
If you do not fill our hearts
We will never be new again
If you do not fill our minds
We'll never see change
