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,
to you who for refuge to Jesus hath fled

Fear not, I am with thee, O be not dismayed,
for I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;

upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

Verse 3
When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be near thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

Verse 4
When through fiery tri-als 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.

Chorus
Jesus, our foundation, we will not be shaken, we will not be shaken,
Jesus, our foundation, we will not be shaken, we will not be shaken,

Verse 5
The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, ne ver forsake.
