Firm as the earth thy gospel stands,
My Lord, my hope, my trust;
If I am found in Jesus' hands,
My soul can ne'er be lost.
His honour is engaged to save
The meanest of his sheep;
All that his heavenly Father gave
His hands securely keep.
Nor death nor hell shall e'er remove
His favourites from his breast;
In the dear bosom of his love
They must for ever rest.
---Alternative verses---
His honor is engaged to save
The meanest of his sheep;
All whom his heavenly Father gave
His hands securely keep.
Nor death nor hell shall e'er remove
His favourites from his breast;
Safe on the bosom of his love
They they for ever rest.
