Still Steadfast


“They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth forever.  As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about His people from henceforth even forever” (Psalm 125:1,2).  “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord” (1 Corinthians 15:58).

Rejoice, all you who trust the Lord;
He is our Savior, tried and true! 
For us His soul has been outpoured;  
His mercies every day are new! 

What more could Jesus Christ have done
To demonstrate His steadfast love? 
He tasted death for everyone! 
He left His majesty above! 

As Zion which abides forever
And mountains round about His throne,
The Lord has promised He will never
Leave nor shall forsake His own. 

So therefore, fellow sisters, brothers,
Be steadfast and unmovable! 
Our faithful Lord is not like others;
He is the Refuge of our soul! 

We thank You, Lord, for showing us
Your faithfulness throughout Your Word.
Your steadfast love so marvelous
Throughout the ages has endured! 

O Lord, we’ve seen Your steadfast ways
In every promise that You gave! 
You clearly said that in three days
That You would rise up from the grave! 

So teach us, Lord, to do Your will
With grace from You that we obtain,
Abounding fruitful, steadfast still,  
That we may labor not in vain.
