“Build A Boat” Lyrics

(Verse 1: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
I’ve been wanderin’ through the desert
Ain’t seen a cloud in forever over me
But I believe Your rain is comin’
Mmm, I’ve been hangin’ onto high hopes
‘Cause You’re the one who’s makin’ dry bones come to life
You’re the light I put my trust in

(Pre-Chorus: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
Every word You say is gonna come true
You will lead me to the promised land
Everything You say is gonna happen
Even though I haven’t seen it yet

(Chorus: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains
And I will stand up in faith, I’ll do anything it takes
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat in the desert place
And when the flood and the water starts to rise, yeah
I’ll ride the storm ‘cause I got You by my side
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat, so let it rain

(Verse 2: Gabby Barrett)
You’re the map, You’re my compass
You help me navigate the currents underneath
Take the lead, I surrender

(Pre-Chorus: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
Every word You say is gonna come true
You will lead me to the promised land
Everything You say is gonna happen
Even though I haven’t seen it yet

(Chorus: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains
I will stand up in faith, I’ll do anything it takes
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat in the desert place
And when the flood and the water starts to rise, yeah
I’ll ride the storm ‘cause I got You by my side
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat, so let it rain

(Post-Chorus: Colton Dixon)
I’ll build a boat, so let it rain

(Chorus: Colton Dixon & Gabby Barrett)
I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains
I will stand up in faith, I’ll do anything it takes
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat in the desert place
And when the flood and the water starts to rise, yeah
I’ll ride the storm ‘cause I got You by my side
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I’ll build a boat, so let it rain
