Build my world around hope Build my world around 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 Build my world around hope Build my world around Where there's mercy and grace Where there is faith Build my world around love Build my world around all that is true Build my world around You
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 hear and my soul You alone are my salvation You're the best of my life Lord, You know my world revolves around You
Chorus
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
