I read a book the other day
That changed my life in every way
It read that Noah built An ark
Before the rain began to start
Now I'm doing, I'm doin' my part

I'm working on a building of love
Gonna build it in the name of everyone
Oh, I'm working on a building of love
Gonna build it in the name of everyone

I turned the pages of the book
And gave my life a second look
It read 'Blessed be the poor'
We're all sisters and we're all brothers
We should learn to love one another

I'm working on a building of love
I'm gonna build it in the name of everyone
Oh, I'm working on a building of love
I'm gonna build it in the name of everyone

Everybody, let's get together
Working on a building
(I got a hammer, I gotta paint now)
Working on a building
(Gonna build shelter for every man)

Working on a building
(Callin' out to every nation)
Working on a building
(Gotta get together, build a strong foundation)

Working on a building
(You and me, me and you)
Working on a building
(You and him, him and her)

Working on a building
(Everybody, aye, aye, ah)
Working on a building
(Aye, ah, hey)

Everybody, let's get together

Workin' on a building of love
Gonna build it, everyone

Workin' on a building of love
Gonna build it, everyone

Workin' on a building of love
Gonna build it, everyone
