How Firm a Foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,204 hymnals Topics: Church Nature and Foundation First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord 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 hath said,
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not! I am with thee; O 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.
3 "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.
4 "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!" Used With Tune: FOUNDATION Text Sources: Rippon's Selection of Hymns, 1787
How Firm a Foundation
The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 883 hymnals Topics: The Living Church Nature and Foundation Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation
Is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the Word:
From heav'n He came and sought her
To be His holy bride;
With His own blood He bought her
And for her life He died.
2 Elect from every nation,
Yet one o’er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation:
One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food;
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace forevermore;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth has union
With God, the Three in One,
And mystic, sweet communion
With those whose rest is won;
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with Thee.

Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,310 hymnals Topics: Church--Foundation and nature Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of you are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
he whose word cannot be broken,
formed you for his own abode;
on the rock of ages founded,
what can shake your sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded
you may smile at all your foes.
2 Blessed inhabitants of Zion,
washed in the Redeemer's blood!
Jesus, whom their souls rely on,
makes them kings and priests to God;
'tis his love his people raises
in his courts to reign as kings,
and as priests, his solemn praises
each for a thankoff'ring brings.
3 Savior, since of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in your name.
Fading are the worldling's pleasures,
all their boasted pomp and show,
solid joys and lasting treasures
none but Zion's children know. Scripture: Psalm 9:11 Used With Tune: AUSTRIAN HYMN
