My firm foundation in shifting sands…His constant love has held me fast.
My prayer today and always.
Verse 1
My hymn of praise shall be “forever Jesusâ€
My firm foundation in shifting sands
My strength and hope through many fears and failures
The disappointments of the past
His constant love has held me fast
Chorus 1
So for all my days I will sing my praise
To the King, “forever Jesusâ€
Though the storms may rage He is strong to save
He’s the King forever Jesus
Verse 2
My song of joy shall be “forever Jesusâ€
Who bore the suffering, who made a way
His life a gift, His death a precious ransom
That wipes the sinner’s guilt away
And turns our night to glorious day
Verse 3
My final breath shall be “forever Jesusâ€
When shadows lengthen before my eyes
My Lord and Friend, Companion through the valley
When dearest ones are left behind,
His hand will lead me to the light
Chorus 2
When I meet His gaze I will sing my praise
To the King, “forever Jesusâ€
All my sorrows past, I am home at last
With my King, “forever Jesus!â€
