G          Em           G            D
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
    G    C        G    Em     G   D D7    G
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word!
  G   Em         C            G           D
What more can He say than to you He hath said,
    G   C       G  Em    G/D D7      G
To you who for refuge to Jesus hath fled.

     G          Em           G            D
"Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
    G    C        G    Em     G   D D7    G
For I am your God, and will still give thee aid;
  G   Em               C              G           D
I'll strengthen thee, help thee and cause thee to stand,
    G           C       G  Em    G/D D7      G
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand."


     G                  Em           G            D
"When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
    G            C        G    Em     G   D D7    G
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
  G   Em         C            G           D
For I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
    G   C       G  Em    G/D D7      G
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress."

     G          Em           G            D
"When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
    G    C        G    Em     G   D D7    G
My grace, all sufficient shall be thy supply;
  G   Em               C              G     D
The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
    G   C       G     Em    G/D D7      G
Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine."

     G          Em           G            D
"The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
    G    C        G    Em     G   D D7    G
I will not, I will not desert to his foes;
  G   Em         C            G           D
That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
    G   C       G  Em    G/D D7      G
I'll never, no never, no never forsake!"
