Sorting a char**

so I'm creating an indexer for a project and we have to use a char** to store the words from a file. I'm trying to sort the words inside the array. Heres what I've tried so far:

void Word::arrangeWords(char **&words)
{

char **temp=new char*[getSize()];

temp[getSize()-1]=words[getSize()-1];
for (int i=getSize()-1;i>0;i--)
{
    comp=strcmp(temp[i], temp[i-1]);
    if (comp<0)
    {
        temp[i]=words[i-1];
        temp[i-1]=words[i];
    }
    else
    {
        temp[i]=words[i];
    }
}
delete [] words;
words=temp;
}

this ends up not working and I kind of understand why. Is the an easier way to sort it? Thanks in advance
