How Firm a Foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,164 hymnals First Line: How firm a foundation, O saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, O saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word!
What more can he say than to you he has said
Who unto the Savior for refuge have fled?
2 In ev'ry condition, in sickness, in health,
In poverty's vale, or abounding in wealth,
At home and abroad, on the land, on the sea --
The Lord, the Almighty, your strength e'er shall be.
3 "Fear not, I am with you. Oh, be not dismayed,
For I am your God and will still give you aid;
I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
4 "When through the deep waters I call you to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow,
For I will be with you your troubles to bless
And sanctify to you your deepest distress.
5 "Throughout all their lifetime my people shall prove
My sov'reign, eternal, unchangeable love,
And then, when gray hair shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still on my shoulders be borne." Topics: Trust; Trust Used With Tune: FIRM FOUNDATION Text Sources: A Selection of Hymns, London, 1787, abr., alt.
How Firm a Foundation
Un ancla tenemos que el hórrido mar
Author: Priscilla Jane Owens, n. 1829 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Un ancla tenemos que el hórrido mar,
Por mucho que ruja, no puede arrancar:
La dulce esperanza que infunda Jesús,
Legada en su muerte de angustia en la cruz.
2 Allá en las alturas do reina el Señor,
Rodeado de seres que ensalzan su amor,
Esta ancla tenemos que fija estará,
Pues Dios so Palabra muy fiel cumplirá.
3 Por bravo que entonces el piélago esté,
Más firme agarremos el cable de fe:
Ni furia de vientos, ni embates del mar
Del puerto la entrada nos pueden vedar. Topics: El Año Cristiano Septuagésima a Cuaresma; Epifanía; Lent; Epiphany Used With Tune: FIRM FOUNDATION Text Sources: H. M.
