God built a stairway to heaven

A stairway that leads to the throne

On faith he has built a foundation

For faith can be stronger than stone

God built a stairway to heaven

That leads to that land without pain

A cross he has used for a railing

The cross where our savior was slain

Let's climb that stairway to heaven

And live there on life's other side

We will succeed at our journey

By his own commandments abide

God built a stairway to heaven

That leads to that city above

He lends us a rail and foundation

The steps we must mold with our love

The steps we must mold with our love
