How fFirm a foundAmation, ye saiFnts of the LoGrd,

WhFat mAmore can He Fsay than to yFou He hath sGaid,
F F F Am F/D G7 F
To you who for refuge to Jesus hath fled.
"F;Fear not, AmI am with theFe, O be not dGismayed,
For FI am Fyour God,F and Amwill stFill GgiG7ve theFe aid;
I'Fll sAmtrengthen thee, hFelp thee and caFuse thee to Gstand,
F F F Am F/D G7 F
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand."
"F;When through the dAmeep waters I Fcall thee to Ggo,
The Frivers of sorFrow shallF not AmoverfloFw; G G7 F
FoFr I Amwill be witFh thee, thy tFroubles to bGless,
F F F Am F/D G7 F
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress."
"F;When throuAmgh fiery triaFls thy pathwaGy shall lie,
My gFrace,F all suffFicienAmt shallF be GthG7y suppFly;
ThFe flAmame shall not hurFt thee; I only FdesignG
F F F Am F/D G7 F
Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine."
"F;The soul tAmhat on Jesus Fhath leaned fGor repose,
I wiFll noFt, I willF not Amdesert Fto hGisG7 foes;F
ThFat sAmoul, thoughF all hell shoFuld endeavorG to shake,

I'll never, no never, no never forsake!"
