Couplet 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 hath fled

Fear not I am with thee
O be not dismayed
For I am thy God
And will still give thee aid
I'll strengthen thee help thee
And cause thee to stand
Upheld by my righteous
Omnipotent hand

Refrain

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

Couplet 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

Couplet 4

When through fiery trials
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

Refrain

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

Couplet 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

I'll never no never
