Fernando Ortega - How Firm A Foundation lyrics

rate me

How firm a foundation ye saints of the Lord, <br />

Is laid for your faith in His excellent word.<br />

What more can He say, Than to you He hath said; <br />

To you, Who for refuge to Jesus have fled?<br />

<br />

Fear not, I am with thee, Oh be not dismayed, <br />

For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid.<br />

I'll strengthen thee, Help thee, And cause thee to stand, <br />

Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.<br />

<br />

When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, <br />

My grace all-sufficient shall be thy supply.<br />

The flame shall not hurt thee, I only design<br />

Thy dross to consume, And thy gold to refine.<br />

<br />

The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose, <br />

I will not, I will not desert to his foes.<br />

That soul, though all hell should endeaver to shake, <br />

I never, No never, No never forsake.<br />

That soul, though all hell should endeaver to shake, <br />

I will never, No never, No never forsake.
