How Firm a Foundation
Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #111 (1980) Scripture: Luke 21:33 Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!
What more can He say than to you He hath said,
You who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed;
I, 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.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
For I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "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.
5 "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!"
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [How firm a foundation]

de Dios en su eterna Palabra de amor!
¿Qué más él pudiera en su libro añadir
si todo a sus fieles lo ha dicho el Señor?
2 "No temas por nada, contigo estoy;
tu Dios yo soy solo, tu ayuda seré.
Tu fuerza y firmeza en mi diestra estarán,
y en ella sostén y poder te daré.
3 "No habrán de anegarte las ondas del mar,
si en aguas profundas te ordeno salir.
Pues siempre contigo en angustia estaré,
y todas tus penas podré bendecir.
4 "Al alma que anhele la paz que hay en mí,
jamás en sus luchas la habré de dejar.
Si todo el infierno la quiere perder,
¡yo nunca, no, nunca la puedo olvidar!" Topics: Dificultades; Trouble; Dios Protección y Refugio; God Protection and Refuge; Palabra de Dios; Word of God; Providence; Providencia; Victory; Victoria Languages: English; Spanish Tune Title: FOUNDATION

with all the blue ethereal sky,
and spangled heavens, a shining frame,
their great Original proclaim.
The unwearied sun from day to day
does his Creator's power display;
and publishes to every land
the work of an almighty hand.
2 Soon as the evening shades prevail,
the moon takes up the wondrous tale,
and nightly to the listening earth
repeats the story of her birth:
whilst all the stars that round her burn,
and all the planets in their turn,
confirm the tidings, as they roll
and spread the truth from pole to pole.
3 What though in solemn silence all
move round the dark terrestrial ball,
what though no real voice nor sound,
amid their radiant orbs be found;
in reason's ear they all rejoice,
and utter forth a glorious voice;
for ever singing as they shine,
"The hand that made us is divine." Topics: Creation; Creation Languages: English Tune Title: CREATION

fling open wide the golden gates,
and let the victors in!

fills all the earth and sky!
What ringing of a thousand harps
bespeaks the triumph nigh!
O day, for which creation
and all its tribes were made!
O joy, for all its former woes
a thousand fold repaid!
3 O then, what raptured greetings
on Canaan's happy shore,
what knitting severed friendships up,
where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle
that brimmed with tears of late,
orphans no longer fatherless,
nor widows desolate.
4 Bring near thy great salvation,
thou Lamb for sinners slain;
fill up the roll of thine elect,
then take thy power and reign:
appear, Desire of nations,
thine exiles long for home;
show in the heav'n thy promised sign;
thou Prince and Savior, come!
