We Have a Firm Foundation

We have a firm foun­da­tion

Whose hope is in the Lord;

We have a bless­èd hav­en

Who an­chor in His word;

Though surg­es break around us

And clouds our sky may dim

He will not leave to per­ish

One soul that clings to Him.

Give praise to our Re­deem­er

O mag­ni­fy His grace;

Our ev­er­last­ing por­tion

Our sure ab­id­ing place.

We have a strong de­liv­er­er

Who trust His migh­ty arm;

Not all the hosts of dark­ness

His chos­en ones can harm;

His arm that brought sal­va­tion

Defends them from ab­ove;

They rest with­in His mer­cy

O’ershadowed by His love.

O love that stooped from Heav­en

To lift us up to God

O love

that to re­deem us

The path of sor­row trod;

Through yon­der land of Beu­lah

Glad harps with rap­ture ring

And num­bers with­out num­ber

Its bound­less tri­umph sing.
