Building, Daily Building

Building

dai­ly buil­ding

while the mo­ments fly

We are ev­er build­ing life work for on high!

Character we’re build­ing

thoughts and act­ions free

Make for us a build­ing for eter­ni­ty.

We are build­ing day by day

While the mo­ments pass away

We are build­ing

ev­er build­ing;

We are buil­ding day by day

While the mo­ments pass away

We are build­ing for eter­ni­ty.

Choosing

as we la­bor

what we wish to take

Oh let us be care­ful for the Mas­ter’s sake!

He will help our la­bor

He will strength be­stow;

Let us choose for Je­sus all we use be­low.

Hay or wood or stub­ble

we must nev­er use

Offers of the tempt­er we must e’er re­fuse.

Sinful thoughts and act­ions will not stand the test;

Seeking God’s ap­prov­al

we must use the best.

May the Lord ap­prove us! ’Tis our ear­nest pray­er.

Oh

to have our build­ing tall

and strong and fair!

Oh

to live for Je­sus! Tru­ly ev­ery hour

Building

pray­ing

trust­ing in His migh­ty pow­er!
