By Gerald Cowan
If you build your house upon the shifting sand
You will dread each storm that rages.
To be quite sure,
Calm and secure,
Build upon the Rock of Ages.
Without ties and proper anchors for your soul
Your boat upon life’s sea is tossed.
The tide may shift
And you will drift,
Both life and soul may then be lost.
Strait and narrow is the way of righteousness.
God set the boundaries for all.
His voice is clear
And you must hear.
Obey the Master when he calls.
Walk within the way of light and truth and life
That is marked for us by Jesus,
Or life will end in
The dark and sin
From which, in Christ, our God frees us.
