How Firm a Foundation

Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,152 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:4 First Line: How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word! What more can he say than to you he has said, To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 2 "Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed, For I am your God, and will still give you aid; I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand, Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand." 3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go, The rivers of woe shall not you overflow; For I will be with you, your troubles to bless, And sanctify to you, your deepest distress." 4 "The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose, I will not, I will not desert to its foes; That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never, no never, no never forsake!"

"Herein is Love"

Author: Frederick W. Faber Appears in 344 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:9 First Line: My God, how wonderful thou art Lyrics: 1 My God, how wonderful thou art, Thy majesty how bright! How glorious is thy mercy-seat, In depths of burning light! 2 How dread are thine eternal years, O everlasting Lord! By prostrate spirits day and night Incessantly adored. 3 Oh, how I fear the, living God, With deepest, tenderest fears, And worship thee with trembling hope, And penitential tears. 4 Yet I may love thee too, O Lord, Almighty as thou art, For thou hast stooped to ask of me The love of my poor heart. 5 No earthly father loves like thee, No mother half so mild Bears and forbears, as thou hast done With me, thy sinful child. 6 My God, how wonderful thou art, Thou everlasting Friend! On thee I stay my trusting heart, Till faith in vision end. Topics: God: The Father Used With Tune: CORINTH

How helpless fallen nature lies

Author: Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 232 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:13 Lyrics: 1 How helpless fallen nature lies, Unconscious of her load! The heart unchanged can never rise To happiness and God. 2 Can aught beneath a power divine A stubborn will subdue? 'Tis thine, eternal Spirit, thine To form the heart anew. 3 'Tis thine the passions to recall, And bid them upward rise; To make the scales of error fall From reason's darkened eyes;-- 4 To chase the shades of death away, And bid the sinner live: A beam of heaven, a vital ray, 'Tis thine alone to give. 5 Renew these wretched hearts of ours; Oh, give us life divine! Then shall our passions and our powers, Almighty Lord, be thine. Topics: The Christian System Human Depravity; Need of Spiritual Renovation

Hosanna to th'incarnate Word! To Christ, Creator, Savior, King, let earth, let heav'n hosanna sing. 2 "Hosanna, Lord!" your angels cry; "Hosanna, Lord!" your saints reply. Throughout the earth, around your throne, your people sing in sweetest tone. 3 O Savior, with protecting care abide in this your house of prayer, Where we your parting promise claim, assembled in your sacred name. 4 O Spirit, all our sins forgive, and come within our hearts to live. Our souls shall be your temple pure and you will make our faith endure. 5 So, on that last and dreadful day, when earth and heav'n shall melt away, your flock, redeemed from sinful stain, shall swell the sound of praise again.
