Johnny Cash The house is falling down Lyrics

Men had needed a shelter,
from the evil, from the night.
The devil wind was blowin',
and from heaven came a light.

The son of god, oh carpenter,
and he came with a plan.
To build a house where
heaven could be offered under men.

(um-b__) when he came here,
he laid down a mighty firm foundation.
And the columns and the beans where churches,
scattered through the nation.
and then rooms were added to it,
on that same old solid rock.
and roughs were raised by willing hand
from the bottom to the top.
then the people came and filled the house,
we're singin' prayer and praise.
Some turned and rejected his house
