Working on a Building

Working on a Building

If I was a sinner, I’d tell you what I’d do,
I’d quit my sinning and I’d work on a building too.

Chorus:

I’m working on a building, I’m working on a building,
I’m working on a building for my Lord, for my Lord.
It’s a Holy Ghost building, It’s a Holy Ghost building,
It’s a Holy Ghost building for my Lord, for my Lord.

If I was a preacher, I’d tell you what I’d do,
I’d keep on preaching and I’d work on a building too. (Chorus)

If I was a liar, I’d tell you what I’d do,
I’d quit my lying and I’d work on a building too. (Chorus)
