Petra - Shakin the House lyrics

rate me

Words by Bob Hartman and John Lawry

Based on 1 Peter 4:17, Hebrews 12:27

There's a rumble in the distance - a trembling in the air

It's uncertain in direction - does it come from here or there

It's approaching by the minute - does it lead you to despair

Feel it shakin your foundation - when you haven't got a prayer

(Chorus)

Everything that can be shaken will be shakin' from within

Better have your house in order when the shaking begins

Shakin' the house

Shakin, shakin' the house

You examine your foundation - does it stand on rock or sand

When the smoke clears, does it bring fears - when the houses fall or stand

In the fire of refining - with the flames too high to douse

You remember someone saying it's beginning in the house

But don't fear when it comes near

And you see the raging fire

If you hold fast it will all pass

Till your heart has His desire
