lyrics
VERSE 1:
If You don’t build it, we labor in vain,
Without Your Spirit, we stand with no strength.
I know my life is passing away,
but the works of Your hands
are what will remain.
Let the favor of the Lord rest upon us…
REFRAIN:
O Lord, establish the work of our hands!
O Lord, establish the work of our hands!
VERSE 2:
Teach us to number the length of our days,
Pour out Your power, we’ll pour out Your praise.
Teach us to run, to finish the race,
for only what’s done in love will remain.
Let the favor of the Lord
rest upon us… (refrain)
CODA:
Al - le - lu - ia, al - le - luia, al - le - luia
Al - le - lu - ia, al - le - luia, al - le - luia (repeat indefinitely)
