Verse 1
Let the rain descend, the floud
And vehement wind assail,
Built on an eternal God
The house can never fail:
Built on Christ the Rock it stands:
Stablish’d in obedience sure,
Man who keeps his God’s commands
Shall as his God endure.
Verse 2
Who on Jesus’ love rely,
And keep his word of grace,
We the rain and storm defy,
And flouds of wickedness:
Troubles pouring from above,
Men and fiends, like flouds and wind
Never can the house remove,
The soul on Christ reclin’d.
