How Firm A Foundation
Building Faith: Discovering Strength in Fiery Trials
Lyrics
How firm a foundation ye saints of the Lord
Addressing the believers, emphasizing the strong and unshakable foundation provided by the Lord.
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word
Highlighting the solidity of faith built upon God's trustworthy and excellent promises.
What more can He say than to you He hath said
Implying that God has communicated all that is necessary for believers through His word.
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled
Assurance to those seeking safety in Jesus during times of trouble.
When through fiery trials my pathway shall lie
Expressing the inevitability of facing challenging and difficult situations.
Your grace all sufficient shall be my supply
Belief in God's sufficient grace to provide strength and support during trials.
The flame shall not hurt me You only design
Confidence that the trials won't ultimately harm, but serve a purpose according to God's plan.
The dross to consume and the gold to refine
Metaphorically describing God's refining process, purifying the believer's faith like gold.
I lift my eyes up
Reaffirmation of looking up to seek guidance and help.
Where does my help come from
Pondering the source of assistance and finding it in the Lord.
It comes from You Lord
Acknowledging the Lord as the source of unwavering support.
My firm foundation
Declaring faith in the Lord as the unyielding and secure foundation.
I lift my eyes up
Reiteration of seeking help from the Lord and affirming faith in Him as the solid ground.
Where does my help come from
-It comes from You Lord
-My firm foundation
-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
-I lift my eyes up
-Where does my help come from
-It comes from You Lord
-My firm foundation
-I lift my eyes up
-Where does my help come from
-It comes from You Lord
-My firm foundation
