Chapters
How firm a foundation you saints have 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 Take refuge to Jesus and live. Fear not, I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will still give you way. I strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand up. Helped by my gracious omnipotent hand.
It walks through the fire, it stands through the storm. How firm my Our foundation is God's holy word. It walks through the fire, it stands through the storm. Our firm foundation is God's holy word.
When through the deep waters I call thee to go, the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow, for I will be with you, your tribe.— to bless and sanctify to you your deepest disgrace. In through fiery trials your pathway shall lie. My grace, all sufficient, shall be your support.
The flame shall not hurt you.
I only desire your dross to consume and your gold to refine.
It walks through the fire. It stands through the storm. How firm a foundation is God's holy word. Oh, it walks through the fire, it stands through the storm. How firm a foundation is God's holy word.
Even down to old age, all my people shall prove my sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love.
And when silver hair shall the temple temples adorned.
Like lambs, they shall still in my word be reborn. The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose, I will not I will not desert to his foes.
That so though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never, no never, no never forsake. That so though all hell should endeavor never to shake.
