| Is it just another question of time |
| We’ve seen enough tomorrows turn to yesterdays |
| Is it now or never |
| You’d better make up your mind |
| We’ve got to start today |
| Our hearts will know the way |
| Gonna need a mountain of courage |
| Strong enough to bear the child of man |
| A tower of strength |
| We’ll build there upon it |
| It will call to every man |
| You’ve got to understand |
| Gotta build our house on a sound foundation |
| Gotta build the walls 'till they reach the sky |
| And this will be our soul salvation |
| The future’s looking bright for you and I |
| You and I |
| An open door will hold a key to your future |
| No locks and chains, so heavy on your heart |
| Every window will frame a new day dawning |
| A whole new generation |
| In the house of many nations |
| Gotta build this house on a sound foundation |
| Gotta build the walls 'till they reach the sky |
| And this will be our soul salvation |
| The future’s looking bright for you and I |
| Brick by brick, we’re gonna build it |
| We’re gonna build it |
| Gonna build it strong, yeah |
| Gonna build this house, build the walls |
| And this will be our soul salvation |
| The future’s looking bright for you and I |
| Hey build this house, this house of many nations |
| Gonna build the walls 'till they reach the sky |
| Gonna build this house |
| This house of many nations |
| Gonna build the walls 'till they reach the sky |
| Why build this house, build this house |
| Gonna build the walls, build the walls |
