[Verse 1]
I learned the hard way
What a house can hold
A crooked little heart
And a faith I almost sold
Dust on the doorway
Bills on the table
Still you held on tight
When I was barely able
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I know where the line is
Now I know what stays
You can take the storm, babe
But you can't take this away
[Chorus]
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
Hands up in the fire
And hearts still wanting more
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
No matter what comes
We belong to the Lord
[Verse 2]
Boots by the back door
Baby clothes in the hall
Your mama's old Bible
Leaning tall against the wall
Sunday morning sun hits
That old screen door frame
I hear grace in your footsteps
Calling out His name
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I know where the line is
Now I know what stays
You can take the storm, babe
But you can't take this away
[Chorus]
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
Hands up in the fire
And hearts still wanting more
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
No matter what comes
We belong to the Lord
[Bridge]
If the road gets long
If the wind blows hard
We'll lean on mercy
Right here in our yard
You and me together
Till the end of days
One roof, one prayer
One name we praise
[Chorus]
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
Hands up in the fire
And hearts still wanting more
As for me and my house
We will serve the Lord
(serve the Lord)
No matter what comes
We belong to the Lord
