Verse 1

There?s a rock that is higher than I

A mending to bridge the divide

A hope that?s beyond my plain sight

Reclaiming what You said is mine


Chorus

You?re rebuilding my ruins one by one, one by one

You are faithful to finish what you start, good as done

Come hell or high waters you won?t stop till it?s won

You?re rebuilding my ruins one by one, one by one


Verse 2

I am standing on this cornerstone

Your love is becoming my home

I trust You have all that I need

As you?re building a city in me


Bridge

I surrender, I?ll watch You rise and fight

My rebuilder, You?re making all things right

My defender, coming with my breakthrough

Now forever victory belongs to You
