World of Sand is the third album by Servant, released in 1982 on Rooftop Records.[1]

World of Sand was the debut album for Rooftop Records, the new media arm of the Highway Missionary Society (the band's parent organization). The title comes from a line in the last song:

Foundations laid upon this world of sand have all washed away to the sea...

— Come Jesus Come

Stylistically, this album would mark the beginning of a move away from the blues rock/classic rock style of their first two albums, toward the synth-infused new wave styles that would mark their latter works.
