Solid Ground
by: Ricky SkaggsOne man built his house in the sand
Another put his house upon a rock
When the floods of tribulation came you can understand
Why one house remained and the other one did not.
So let's built our house on solid ground on a rock
Where we can live and love till death do us part
Leaning on each other standing on our vows
With this love in our hearts baby we're on solid ground.
Yeah we've got the high ground when troubled waters rise
Where we can lay back and watch the clouds roll by
As long as I've got you stormy skies can come around
Baby let the rain fall cause we're on solid ground.
So let's built our house on solid ground on a rock
Where we can live and love till death do us part
Leaning on each other standing on our vows
With this love in our hearts baby we're on solid ground.
So let's built our house on solid ground on a rock
Where we can live and love till death do us part
Leaning on each other standing on our vows
With this love in our hearts baby we're on solid
