Build a Castle - Dan Romer, Osei Essed

Gonna build a castle, gonna build it high

Gonna build it brick by brick, and stone by stone 'til it reaches it up to the

sky

When the sun goes down and the wind gets cold, we’ll be warm inside

The storm will keep on brewing, but we’ll have a place to hide

And we’ll sing…

Oh Lord!

The voice don’t lie, we’re gonna be safe and sound tonight

Oh Lord!

The strong don’t cry, gonna open up the door when the morning light

shines in

When the light shines in!

Gonna build a palace, gonna build it grand

Gonna build it floor by floor, and wall by wall with our hearts and with our

hands

When we step outside into the breeze, we’ll know our commands

We’ll walk into the garden, and we’ll live upon this land

And we’ll sing…

Oh Lord!

The voice don’t lie, we’re gonna be safe and sound tonight

Oh Lord!

The strong don’t cry, gonna open up the door when the morning light

shines in

When the light shines in!

When the light shines in

Gonna build a fortress, gonna build it strong

Gonna build it bolt by bolt, and plate by plate, gonna build it all day long

We’re gonna make it through the winter snow, 'cause we know right from wrong

Our house will still be standing, when the world is all but gone

And we’ll sing…

Oh Lord!

The voice don’t lie, we’re gonna be safe and sound tonight

Oh Lord!

The strong don’t cry, gonna open up the door when the morning light

shines in

When the light shines in!

When the morning light shines in
