1 Sure is my foundation, as I stand today
On the living word that faileth never;
Earth with all its glory soon must pass away,
But the Word of God shall stand forever.
Refrain:
Standing on the word,
Standing on the word,
Standing on the never-failing Word of God;
Though many foes assail,
His promise cannot fail,
For I’m standing on the never-failing Word.
2 Faith is resting on the promise strong and sure,
Hope is anchored safe and cannot falter;
Peace has found a haven from the storms secure
In the Word of God that cannot alter. [Refrain]
3 Fearful are the storms that may around me beat,
Many are the foes that would assail me;
I have found a never-failing, sure retreat
In the Word of God that cannot fail me. [Refrain]
4 Like a beacon star to lead me through the night,
Like a light upon my pathway streaming,
Is the Word of God to guide my steps aright
To my homeland with its portals gleaming. [Refrain]
