How Firm a Foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,254 hymnals Topics: Holy Scriptures First Line: How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord Lyrics: 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?
2 "Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed;
for I am your God, and will still give you aid;
I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be with you, your troubles to bless,
and sanctify to you your deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie,
my grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply;
the flame shall not hurt you; I only design
your dross to consume and your gold to refine.
5 "E'en down to old age all my people shall prove
my sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;
and when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn,
like lambs they shall still in my bosom be borne.
6 "The soul that on Jesus has 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."
Scripture: Isaiah 41:10 Used With Tune: FOUNDATION Text Sources: Rippon's Selection of Hymns, 1787; alt.; mod.

A glory gilds the sacred page
Author: Wm. Cowper Appears in 391 hymnals Topics: Worship Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic like the sun;
It gives a light to every age,
It gives, but borrows none.
2 The Spirit breathes upon the word,
And brings the truth to sight;
Precepts and promises afford
A sanctifying light.
3 The hand that gave it, still supplies
The gracious light and heat;
His truths upon the nations rise,
They rise, but never set.
4 Let everlasting thanks be thine,
For such a bright display;
It makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day. Used With Tune: ORTONVILLE

Their holy fruits and sweetness show
The author is divine.

To view thy glory, Lord,
And all thy image here to trace,
Reflected in thy word!

In holiness and love,
That we may long to see and know
Thy glorious face above. Used With Tune: ORTONVILLE Text Sources: Campbell's Collection

Now let the dew of heaven descend

To bring forth fruits of love. A-men.

The rising plant destroy,
But let it yield a hundredfold
The fruits of peace and joy.

Thy quickening grace bestow,
That all whose souls the truth receive
Its saving power may know.

God is the refuge of His saints
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 469 hymnals Topics: Scriptures God's word Lyrics: 1 God is the refuge of His saints,
When storms of sharp distress invade;
Ere we can offer our complaints,
Behold Him present with His aid!
2 Let mountains from their seats be hurled
Down to the deep, and buried there,
Convulsions shake the solid world,
Our faith shall never yield to fear.
3 Loud may the troubled ocean roar;
In sacred peace our souls abide;
While every nation, every shore,
Trembles, and dreads the swelling tide.
4 There is a stream, whose gentle flow
Supplies the city of our God;
Life, love, and joy still gliding through,
And watering our divine abode.
5 That sacred stream, Thy living word,
Thus all our anxious fear controls;
Sweet peace Thy promises afford,
And give new strength to fainting souls.
6 Zion enjoys her Monarch's love,
Secure against the threatening hour;
Nor can her firm foundation move,
Built on His faithfulness and power. Used With Tune: WALTON
God is the refuge of His saints
