Intro
(A D G Bm Em)
Verse 1
Unless the Lord builds the house,
Its builders labor in vain.
Unless He guards the city’s gates,
Our watchmen’s work is drained.
Pre-Chorus
Rise early, toil through the night,
Yet bread comes not from strife.
Chorus
Oh, He grants His beloved rest,
A peace no toil can find.
The hands of God are ever near,
Our hope in Him aligned.
Verse 2
Children are arrows in the hand,
A heritage we claim.
Blessed is the one whose quiver’s full,
Their future bears His name.
Chorus
Oh, He grants His beloved rest,
A peace no toil can find.
The hands of God are ever near,
Our hope in Him aligned.
Bridge
The house He builds will never fall,
It’s rooted in His grace.
A stronghold standing firm and tall,
Eternal is its place.
Chorus
Oh, He grants His beloved rest,
A peace no toil can find.
The hands of God are ever near,
Our hope in Him aligned.
