In The Beginning

 I'm gonna build right on that shore
 I'm gonna build for my Jesus

 Hey, I'm pray child, right on that shore
 well, I'm gonna pray for my Jesus

 well I'm walking down the road one day
 when I heard his Master voice
 Spirit came upon me
 filled my heart with joy


 I started out for Canaan

 I'm gonna build for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more


 O, just let me build right on that shore

just let me pray right on that shore
 ooo, I wanna pray right on that shore
 Lord, said I wanna pray for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more


 Well I stood upright
 and I stood for God
 and I am standing here today
 telling where my Jesus walked
 in that straight and narrow way
 I can't turn back and I won't turn around
 I'm gonna stay right on that shore
 I'm gonna stand for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more


 Let me stand, right on that shore
 ooo, let me stand right on that shore
 said, I wanna stand for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more


 Well, his ?? is completed
 going home to live with God
 telling bout my troubles
 down in this land I taught
 just ??? that (giant/triumph??)
 I'm gonna live forever more
 I'm gonna live for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more


Let me live, right on that shore
 ooo, let me live right on that shore
 said, I wanna live for my Jesus
 for my Jesus seven more
