How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Is lain 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? (That's what He says) 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 ♪ 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 ♪ The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose I will not, I will not desert to his foes That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake I'll never, no never, no never forsake (Sing, that soul) That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake I'll never, no never, no never forsake
