Chorus
build my world around hope
build my world where there's mercy and grace
build my world around love
build my world around all that is true
build my world around you

empires have fallen,
castles of sand, kingdoms then but ruins today
the house of the wise man is certain to stand
built upon the rock it will stay
you alone are the foundation for the rest of my life
Lord, I want to build my world around you


- Chorus -


right at the center of all of my life
you're not just a part, you're the whole
nothing else matters if we're not right
you truly are my heart and my soul
you alone are my salvation, you're the best of my life
Lord, you know my world revolves around you


- Chorus -


Bridge
and I believe you'll prepare for me a resting place when we're through
and I believe you will carry me for the rest of forever, until we're together
I will build my world around you


- Chorus -
