How Firm A Foundation Lyrics

Verse 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
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled

Verse 2

Fear not I am with thee O be not dismayed
For I am thy God I will still give thee aid
I'll strengthen thee help thee
And cause thee to stand
Up-held by My righteous omnipotent hand

Chorus

Christ, our firm foundation
Hope, to generations
Where all life is found,
where our joy abounds

Verse 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 thee in thy deepest distress

Verse 4

When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie
My grace all-sufficient shall be thy supply
The flames shall not hurt thee I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine

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 never forsake
(no) He'll never He'll never He'll never forsake!

Christ Our Glory Lyrics

Verse 1

Our rest is in heaven, our rest is not here
Then why should we tremble when trials draw near?
Be still and remember the worst that can come
But shortens our journey and hastens us home

Chorus 1

Christ our glory, Christ our hope
Christ our King forevermore
Be still and remember the worst that can come
But shortens our journey and hastens us home

Verse 2

No hours should be wasted on seeking our joy
And placing our hope in what will be destroyed
We look for a city that hands have not raised
We long for a country that sin has not stained

Chorus 2

Christ our glory, Christ our hope
Christ our King forevermore
We look for a city that hands have not raised
We long for a country that sin has not stained

Verse 3

Though trouble and anguish increase all the more
They cannot compare to the glory in store
Come joy or come sorrow, whatever befalls
The light of the Savior will outshine them all

Chorus 3

Christ our glory, Christ our hope, Christ our King forevermore
Christ our glory, Christ our hope, Christ our King forevermore
Christ our glory, Christ our hope, Christ our King forevermore
Come joy or come sorrow, whatever befalls
The light of the Savior will outshine them all

Be Thou My Vision Lyrics

Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one

Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art

High King of Heaven, my victory won
May I reach Heaven's joys, O bright Heav'n's Sun
Heart of my own heart, whate'er befall
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all

Jesus Alone Lyrics

VERSE 1

My treasure of wisdom, all knowledge I hold
Is folly compared to Jesus alone
All of man’s cunning, his mountain of pride
Crumbles to dust beside Jesus alone

VERSE 2
No wealth that I gather, no riches I own
Compare to the glory of Jesus alone I will not seek fame, nor earthly throne
But to know and be known Jesus alone

CHORUS
Our Wisdom, our Righteousness, Glory and Grace
You purchased our freedom, You died in our place
Holy and blameless You’ve made us Your own
Now our only boast is in Jesus alone

VERSE 3
The burden of sin and the power it holds
Would have led me to death but for Jesus alone
The cross, our redemption, where Your love was shown
We stand now victorious in Jesus alone
We stand now victorious in Jesus alone

CHORUS 2
Our Wisdom, our Righteousness, Glory and Grace
You purchased our freedom, You died in our place
Holy and blameless You’ve made us Your own
Now our only boast is in Jesus alone
Now our only boast is in Jesus alone

BRIDGE
- everybody accentuated the rhythm on the "G's"
Hallelujah! Death defeated! For the grave You’ve overcome
Hallelujah! Sin is broken! By the power in Your blood
Glory, glory! Thank You, Jesus! All the praise to You alone
We will bow down, we will worship, at Your feet before the throne
Worthy is Your name
Worthy is Your name

CHORUS 3
Our Wisdom, our Righteousness, Glory and Grace
You purchased our freedom, You died in our place
begin build here
Holy and blameless You’ve made us Your own
Now our only boast is in Jesus alone
Now our only boast is in Jesus alone

BRIDGE
Hallelujah! Death defeated! For the grave You’ve overcome
Hallelujah! Sin is broken! By the power in Your blood
Glory, glory! Thank You, Jesus! All the praise to You alone
We will bow down, we will worship, at Your feet before the throne
Worthy is Your name
Worthy is Your name
