Author: Priscilla J. Owens Hymnal: Melodious Sonnets #38 (1885) First Line: Faith builds her foundation on God's mighty word Refrain First Line: This God is our God forever and ever Lyrics: 1 Faith builds her foundation on God’s mighty word,
The rock that withstands all the earthquake’s endeavor,
And over the conflict her sweet voice is heard,
Refrain:
This God is our God forever and ever,
This God is our God forever and ever.
2 Faith trusts for her cleansing to Christ’s precious blood
To save ev’ry moment, sin’s bondage to sever;
That fountain of healing still rolls its blest flood, [Refrain]
3 Faith takes up the cross as she journey’s along,
And scatters good seed with and earnest endeavor,
While over all trials still echoes the song, [Refrain]
4 Faith looks for her heaven at God’s own right hand,
Then home where the thorns from the roses shall sever;
This earth she well knows is a long weary land; But [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 48:14 Languages: English Tune Title: [Faith builds her foundation on God’s mighty word]
