To celebrate a beautiful Sabbath afternoon, I'm going to write about my favorite hymn.
"How Firm a Foundation"
If you want to look at the whole text, here it is:

There's a video on Youtube of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing an amazing arrangement of this hymn. (The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is my church's choir based in Salt Lake City)
Since I'm not smart enough to figure out how to post the video here, and since my smart husband isn't home right now Here's a link:

I love this hymn!! I love that it testifies of the great truth that our Heavenly Father will not give us anything in life that we can't handle. The fire will not consume us. It's designed to refine us. "As our days may demand, so [His] succor shall be." What great promises. And since we've sought refuge with Him, "though all Hell should endeavor to shake, we will not, we cannot desert to His foes".
