I'm buildin' me a home
I'm buildin' me a home
I'm buildin' me a home
I'm buildin' me a home
This earthly heart
Is gonna soon decay
And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

When you hear me prayin'
I'm buildin' me a home
When you hear me prayin'
I'm buildin' me a home
This earthly heart
Is gonna soon decay
And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay

There's too many dangers, toils and snares
I have already gone
But his grace fills my hеart with fear
And I know he's gonna bring me homе

When you hear me moanin'
I'm buildin' me a home
When you hear me moanin'
I'm buildin' me a home
This earthly heart
Is gonna soon decay
And the soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay
When you hear me shoutin'
I'm buildin' me a home
When you hear me shoutin'
This earthly heart
Is gonna soon decay
And the soul's gotta have oh Lord somewhere to stay
And my soul's gotta have, oh Lord, somewhere to stay
