VERSE 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?
VERSE 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.
VERSE 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.
VERSE 4:
The soul that on Jesus has 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!
