When I was trying to come back to church with all my addictions and challenge's I listened to this song in the shower, car and anywhere I could. After 9 months I partook of the sacrament and soon after became an elder went through the temple and got married in the Seattle Temple. God blesses us when we try everyday. God bless you if you struggle to get to church.

i am 7 and i am jack and i love this church i love it all! i hope more brothers &sisters join the church

I literally don't understand how anyone could listen to a song like this and not believe in a higher power.

Returning to church next Sunday and I'm here to endure to the end along the covenant path

Something I love about this version of the song is that there's no music during the third verse - the organ is completely silent. It's like that's done to remove the noise, and make it easier to hear the spirit… it's such a powerful verse, being such an important and touching and impactful promise from God, and this version of the song makes a HUGE impact by cutting the music for this verse. I absolutely love it! ☺️ It's like the organ goes quiet so that God's voice can come in loud and clear! ❤️

"Fear not, I am with thee, oh be not dismayed. For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid. I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, upheld by my righteous omnipotent hand." My favorite verse in the whole hymn.

I am from India... I am crying because i have never seen this type of singing... May b in heavens i will see again

My best days of my life were when I was strong in the Gospel & in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have been way less active for far too long. This music helps give me hope and strengthens my faith.

My two year old boy loves this song. He hums it in the grocery store. I showed him this video and he wants to listen to it again and again. What a powerful song.

For He is my God and ALWAYS gives me aid, He strengthens me, helps me, and causes me to stand, upholds me by His righteous hand. These are not just words to a song. It is a reality. Not only that but He provides for me, teaches me, heals me, comforts me in sorrow, then brings me back to joy. Counsels me, empowers me, leads me along, restores to me all that was lost. These blessings are available to all who will seek Him. Try Him and see if it isn't so...

1. How firm a foundation, ye Saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in his excellent word! What more can he say than to you he hath said, Who unto the Savior, who unto the Savior, Who unto the Savior for refuge have fled? 2. In ev’ry condition-in sickness, in health, In poverty’s vale or abounding in wealth, At home or abroad, on the land or the sea-As thy days may demand, as thy days may demand, As thy days may demand, so thy succor shall be. 3. Fear not, I am with thee; oh, be not dismayed, For I am thy God and will still give thee aid. I’ll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by my righteous, upheld by my righteous, Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand. 7. The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose I will not, I cannot, desert to his foes; That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, I’ll never, no never, I’ll never, no never, I’ll never, no never, no never forsake!

To me, Mormon Tabernacle Choir seems to be the World Best Choir

I ❤ JESUS-CHRIST THANK-YOU FOR COMING INTO MY LIFE

An extraordinarily powerful and empowering moment for me was the moment I realized that this song is a message from God, a declaration by God of His will. God really will never abandon us. God really will always strengthen us, help us, and cause us to stand. His righteous, omnipotent hand really will hold us up. He really will succor us no matter what condition or situation we are in, no matter where we are, no matter how or who we are. He really will save anyone who stands upon the foundation of faith which was laid. He really will never forsake us. All we gotta do is trust that He will do it, and have faith in our redeemer. When I realized that God was speaking to me through this song, relaying this message to me, I broke down, sobbing tears of joy. _The most powerful being in existence is on my side, and will never, _*_can never,_*_ leave my side._ Even now, as I write this comment a few weeks later, I am overflowing with so much joy that it is coming out in the form of tears. Whenever I hear this song, I hear God speaking the words.

Hey all. I just came here for a good cry and to let myself be reminded of the love Jesus has for me.

I was born in mainland China, so I know how dark it is without God, because the light of God belongs to the CCP. I grew up in the United States and believed in God and knew God. Only then did I know that the power and light of God’s freedom and democracy must be the root of life and the source of vitality. I am grateful to God, witness faith, studing and searching wisdoms, promoting science and technology, humanity and the history of civilization to develop and advance forever!

I just returned from a stake youth church history trip for a week and I wasn't feeling like I was getting out what I put in. I have been rather inactive for the months leading up to it but I didn't consider that I was inactive because I still did everything the same other than go to church. I was at the point to were this trip was really going to tell me if I believe in this church and will serve a mission. I was feeling like I wasn't strengthening my testimony but I was only growing closer to my group of friends. The whole trip was great but on the second to last day I was on the bus but instead of talking to all my friends like I would normally do, I was the only one awake so I leaned back and thought if this whole trip I feel nothing then it would be a waste so this is my official prayer asking if this is the truth and to give me a sign. During this we were on our way to the Winter Quarters but had to stop at a church to wait our turn for the tour. I had forgotten that I had asked for a sign by then and was admiring the temple. After the tour we head back to the church and had a little meeting with the stake after dinner. They then said that we would be splitting into our companies and doing a testimony meeting. I was pretty neutral on the idea but I didn't expect anything of it. I mad it through three testimonies (which funnily enough were my three closest friends in my company) but the fourth made me start crying. He was talking about how he was able to feel the spirit in a different way and I connected it to my experience immediately. I was crying pretty good but there was a gap in-between testimonies and I started thinking about how impossible this feeling was to ignore or deny and right then is when I noticed that this was the sign I had prayed for. I then started to think about all my friends and how I wish they could've been there with me and then I started to think about the missionary's in our friend group and all the missionaries that I know I was crying harder and harder but then I thought of my sister who went on a mission to Spain and her husband who served in new Zealand and was crying really hard to where I felt like I was distracting or being to dramatic or looking for attention. I then saw a kid in my company react to someone else testimony after she had said family's can be together forever in heaven and I remembered that his sister had died and that's why he reacted to it. I started to feel so much empathy for him and wanted to give him a hug but I wasn't going to do it in the middle of the meeting. I then started to think about all the people in that room who knew what I was going through and started thinking about what they had been going through and I was really crying, probably the hardest in the building. I knew I wasn't going to bear my testimony because I was watching it form right in front of my eyes. There was another girl who I had become acquainted with throughout the trip who started talking about how she planned on leaving the church when she turned 18 but after this trip she changed her mind because of how she felt and what she saw, and in my head I thought "We almost had a child of god lead astray" and I started crying some more. The testimony meeting ended and I hugged one of my leaders and after I hugged them I turned around to the kid whose sister had died and I called his name and he turned to me and instantly hugged my and we were both making really ugly crying noises but we were hugging really hard. I then went around the room hugging everyone and then went outside our room and started hugging all my friends that I could find even though they were chilling and eating ice cream. I was still balling when I was walking around as I knew these people knew what I just learned and I was so happy. The dance started so I went into the foyer and sat alone crying still. A leader named Nick came up to me to check on me and I told him I had never been better. He told me to hold onto these experiences and never forget them and told me his name but I cannot remember the last name. He walked away and the music was playing loud so I went outside and looked out into the late evening sky. That was four days ago and I feel like the spirit hasn't left inside of me since. Today in church after hearing the other youth talk about their experience I wanted to hear more so I texted all my friends and asked what wards they were in and when they started, my church starts at 9 so I didn't go to second hour and left to another ward that started at 10:30. I listen to this ward and started planning on where I was going to go next and I planned on going to the ward that was about 25 minutes away but it was my best friend on the trip so I wanted to go. I sat next to her this time and she was one of the youth speaking. This ward was my favorite to listen to because the al seemed to have matured greatly and they were speaking from the heart and all were crying. I only started crying when my friend was speaking and when she said that she knows its the true church. I started crying because it was so powerful to hear someone you love say something so lovely. I cried plenty more while the closing speaking was talking but what really hit me was this closing song, How Firm a Foundation. There was a couple of people to my far right and one of them was a dude with a really great talent for singing and the piano was really good and my friend who just went through so much with me sounded so bad because of how lost our voices were. All of it together made me cry but I had to keep singing because we were singing this same song at the end of our testimony meeting on the trip and I had to stop singing because I was crying, so I wanted to finish this time. I think number 85 of the hymn book is my new favorite song.

When I leave this world, I want this done at my funeral. It is one of my all-time favorites.

I'm proud to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

I Love my Church. Our Hymns. Gospel of The Jesus Christ via our mediums. Plan of Salvation. ❤

This song strengthens my faith. Proud to be LDS member from Zimbabwe

Whenever I listen to this amazing song I feel my soul closer to my Father in Heaven. It looks like every daily issues and challenges that I face in mortality can be overcome, and I can receive an assurance confirmation that my Father in Heaven knows me and loves me with perfect love. He will recognize my daily efforts to become more like His son, Jesus Christ, and will help me on the right path through the Holy Ghost.

Fear not, I am with thee, oh be not dismayed for I am thy God and will still give thee aid. I'll strengthen thee, help thee and cause thee to stand. Upheld by my righteous omnipotent hand! Love it!!

I'm beginning my transition into the LDS church and the wonderful music like this is so great to put on while reading the scriptures :) I am so thankful for the gospel and this amazing choir.

This is my go to hym for when I am down or depressed it has helped me many times to strengthen my testimony in times of need.

The Tabernacle Choir in my opinion is the best choir in the world!!!!!! They bring the spirit so strongly when I listen to them.They have great harmony, They blend amazingly, and to top it all off they really bring the spirit so strongly. Listening to them makes my testimony stronger every time I hear them.

I lost my faith and fell away from the church at 17 some 3 odd years ago, I got into some bad habits, alcohol, nicotine, etc. But after experiencing the worldly, hedonistic lifestyle for some time, and looking at the direction the world is heading in, it made me realize how important the community, and family values are. And I know that having God and community in your life is the ONLY way to fix the mental health and loneliness epidemic the world faces today. I started going to church again 2 weeks ago with my brother, and last week this song was played in sacrament, and I felt the spirit in a way I never had before. But though I still don't have the faith I used to have, and I struggle to keep commandments sometimes, I hope to return to Christ and help build his kingdom on the earth. God Bless.

Just woke up from a REALLY bad nightmare. I always turn to this song for comfort. The third verse especially. The third and seventh verse DEFINITELY made me feel better.

It my fav hymns, that help me to succeed into the mission field.

Every time I hear this song.... I get a strong comforting feeling every time I hear it! Thank you Tabernacle Choir for bringing the spirit of the Lord into this world with your beautiful singing!!!! I feel like after hearing this song, I wanna shout glory to God forever more... Amen to God and and Jesus Christ! God bless you all!😁😁😁😁

I haven't been to church in 6 years, this hymn is my favorite. I'm listening to this before I walk in my ward sacrament meeting this morning after a 6 year absence where I kinda lost myself.

Jesus Christ Is Lord and Is The Only Way To Heaven🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️

This hymn is saying that we should not ever give up on whatever we are going through because Jesus Christ is always with us. We are the ones that give up on him and walk away from his presence.

we need a second tabernacle choir in Europe or somewhere cause we need more awesome music!

This is definitely one of my favourite church hymns

Reminds me of my teenage years in the Catholic Church we used to sing this hymn on Sundays ❤️

One of my favorite hymns! ❤

In my humble opinion, this is by far the most powerful hymn of all time

I'm so proud that I'm a member of the church...😍😍😍 everyday of my life, is a great testimony !!!😍😍

Am proud to be a member of the Lattre Days Saints

Goosebumps, every time i hear this Beautiful

Jesus, my firm foundation. I love you. The song is full of HEAVENLY promises. Praise God.

This hymn is truly amazing. Sometimes, I feel like there's barely enough room in my soul for the power this hymn brings. As always, we are truly blessed as a church for such a choir.

I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (October 6, Pentecost 20), we sang this as the Closing Hymn. Ditto for me as I played it as the Hymn of the Day at a local Lutheran Church that I filled in at today. It is #796 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship. We sang it to the tune, FOUNDATION, and Early American tune.

இயேசு அப்பாவின் வசனத்தில் ஒன்றும் அழிந்து போவதில்லை. வானத்திலும் பூமியிலும் சகல அதிகாரமும் உடையவர்.

Thank you God for this strengthening song

Oh GOD please Bless USA and the World.Thank You very much GOD.

This has always been one of my favorite hymns. I too love how many times it tells us that the Savior will never, no never forsake us.

FILIPINO MORMON HERE!!

this just makes me think of all of the blessing i have been given over the years.

this was my first song i liked thye moment i joined the church. No man has ever been blessed to sing like the Momorns. Hail to them

this is the song that the missionaries in tacloban leyte sung after the devastating typhoon here in our country...it only shows that we latter day saints is guided by Heavenly Father

One of the Great old hymns, performed magnificently! Thank you!

Im very grateful become a member of this church

I'm feeling down today thought I needed it

It’s amazing how powerful that third verse is even without the organ playing

This is how the song was meant to be sung. Surely God and His angels sing this arrangement of this song.

Am grateful to be a member of the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day saints

This hymn blessed and helped me so much on my mission!

I’m facing some family issue and can not go to church but anytime I listen to the hymns it gives me the morale to strive hard

how firm a foundation this song fills my soul

In times when I'm low and feeling sad MY mind and spirit will go to this song or a few others!!!!!! Just knowing it word per word helps me perk up and feel better!!!!!!! The love OF CHRIST IS IN every line and word thinks to the choir for singing IT and writer and composer for bringing IT into this 🌎!!!!!!!!!!!

Whenever I listen this song i feet God's love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

1:56 amazing. feeling the Lord's

The Mormon Tab. Choir actually sings lots of songs that are not in the hymn book, so I think a request for a song that is in harmony with the church's teaching is absolutely appropriate! I grew up Protestant, and I was really surprised at how many hymns are in both the Protestant and LDS hymnals! We have a lot more in common than I realized.

how I loves these hymms...! they uplift my spirits when I am down...!

Glory be to Jesuschrist! Today and forever!

i love this hymn; i love this arrangement. i'll never forsake thee, no never. Latter-day Saint hymns inspire me. i believe them

In ev’ry condition-in sickness, in health, In poverty’s vale or abounding in wealth, At home or abroad, on the land or the sea- As thy days may demand, as thy days may demand, As thy days may demand, so thy succor shall be... Reminds me that He is always there. In all seasons

The singing at 1:03 gives me chills, it's just so good... "At home or abroad," in specific, like, all that unified singing is overwhelming.

Everytime I sing this I cant deny the power of the spirit that I feel. God Lives and Loves us that hes blessed us with hes wonderful gospel. That thru his Son we may return back to him.

I thank God for my life to be member of the church of jesus christ of latter day saints.🙏🙏🙏🙏🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

Jesus Christ this choir is such a blessing

that. lady in the front row is such a sweet spirit- what joy in her singing!

God Is Great, May God Bless them all and you all and your families

Mans is jammin out on those descending notes

Powerful witness of our Savior and the importance of always relying on Him. Never, no never forsake!

After being baptised in the church ⛪️ in 2010 and I served a mission in Nigeria 🇳🇬 Calabar Mission in 2013 and I returned home in 2015. I have finally received my own very testimony. When The Saviour said expect a Man be born again He can not see either Enter into the Kingdom of God. This year July I finally received the spirit of God in my soul and this happened in my house. I feel like I have been born again, my Love for Heavenly Father, His Son Jesus Christ and People around suddenly grown in my heart and my desires to love one another becomes so beautiful in my soul. I know many of all still find it hard to identify it but be patient and be prayerful your testimony is next in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen. This is my testimony I share with you all in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen 🙏.

There is a strength, & peace that comes with being with the Saints, our Brothers, & Sisters in Christ. Gathering together is knowing we are united in living the Gospel, & following our God, & our Savior. We help, & build each other up in this glorious purpose. 🙏🙏🙏

May Jesus Christ bless this choir and everybody listening it. I tear up everytime i listen this video. I was there at General Conference with president Monson, this day, 8 years ago traveling across Utah. I thank Jesus for that opportunity. Hearing today in state of Mato Grosso, Brazil.
