How Firm A Foundation  Mormon Tabernacle Choir

this is by far one of my favorite hymns
Capo 1, all chords are relative to capo
H[A]ow firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is l[E]aid for your fa[D]ith in His excellent Wo[A]rd!
What m[E]ore can He sa[D]y than to you He hath s[A]aid
Who unto the Savior,Who unto the Savior,
Who u[E]nto the Savi[D]or, for refuge have f[A]led?
In every condition, -- in sickness, in health,
In po[E]verty's val[D]e, or abounding in we[A]alth,
At ho[E]me and abroad, [D]on the land, or the [A]sea, --
As thy days may demand, As thy days may demand,
As t[E]hy days may deman[D]d, So thy su[A]ccor shall be.
Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed,
For I am thy G[E]od and will [D]still give thee a[A]id;
I'll strengthen [E]thee, help thee, [D]and cause thee to [A]stand,
Upheld by My righteous, Upheld by My righteous,
Uphel[E]d by My righteous, [D]omnipotent han[A]d.
When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The ri[E]vers of sorrow [D]shall not overflo[A]w;
For [E]I will be with thee [D]thy troubles to b[A]less
And sanctify to thee, And sanctify to thee,
And [E]sanctify to thee, [D]thy deepest distres[A]s.
When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My gr[E]ace, all-sufficient, [D]shall be thy supp[A]ly.
The f[E]lames shall not hurt thee; [D]I only desig[A]n
Thy dross to consume, Thy dross to consume,
Thy dr[E]oss to consume, [D]and thy gold to refi[A]ne.
E'en down to old age all My people shall prove
My sover[E]eign, eternal, [D]unchangeable lov[A]e;
And wh[E]en gray hairs shall their [D]temples ado[A]rn,
Like lambs they shall still, Like lambs they shall still,
Like la[E]mbs they shall still [D]in My bosom be bo[A]rne.
The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose
I w[E]ill not, I cannot, [D]desert to his fo[A]es;
That s[E]oul, though all hell should [D]endeavor to sh[A]ake,
I'll never, no never, I'll never, no never,
I'll ne[E]ver, no never, [D]no never, forsak[A]e!
