How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord

Appears in 2,202 hymnals Topics: Covenant; Faith Blessedness of; Trials Comfort in; The Word Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in His excellent word! What more can He say than to you He has said, Who unto the Saviour for refuge have fled? Who unto the Saviour for refuge have fled? 2 "In every condition--in sickness, in health, In poverty's vale, or abounding in wealth, At home and abroad, on the land, on the sea, As thy days may demand, so thy succor shall be, As thy days may demand, so thy succor shall be. 3 "Fear not, I am with thee; oh, be not dismayed; For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid; I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand, Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand. 4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply; The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine, Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine. 5 "E'en down to old age, all My people shall prove My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love; And then, when gray hairs shall their temples adorn Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne, Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne. 6 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned 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!" Amen. Used With Tune: PORTUGUESE HYMN

There we shall see his face; his power we shall adore and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore. 3 The goodly land I see, with peace and plenty blest, a land of sacred liberty and endless rest. There milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound; the tree of life forever grows with mercy crowned. 4 There rules the Lord our King, the Lord our Righteousness, victorious over death and sin, the Prince of Peace. On Zion's sacred height his kingdom he maintains, and glorious with his saints in light forever reigns. 5 Triumphant hosts on high give thanks to God and sing, and “Holy, holy, holy” cry, “Almighty King!” Hail, Abraham's God and ours!
