Tune: Aurelia
('The church's one foundation')
Isaiah 43 v.1 - 7 parts
*******
The LORD formed and created
His help not abated
Unto His people, for He
Says 'Fear not' to them, see
For I have you redeeméd
Called you by name, have led
You in my way, you are mine
Shall have blessings divine
When through the waters you pass
You need not cry 'Alas'
For i will be there with you
Through the rivers, 'tis true
They shall not you overflow
My presence you shall know
And when you walk through the fire
It shall not be dread, dire
For you shall not be burned there
But shall protected fare
Nor shall any flame scorch you
I keep you from them too
For I am the LORD your God
With you the path have trod
The Holy One of Israel
Of me each tongue shall tell
Fear not, for I am with you
And will you sure renew
Will restore, bring you from east
And from west, greatest, least
And from the north and south too
My sons and daughters you
Each one called by my name sure
Fro my glory e'ermore
