In John Rippon's A Selection of Hymns (1787, plus numerous subsequent editions), "How Firm a Foundation" (no. 128) is attributed merely to "Chiliad—".

Robert Nifty(e) The well-nigh probable possibility is Robert Keene, who served as precentor at Rippon's church.

Based on Isaiah 43: ane-5, this text was given the heading "Exceeding keen and precious Promises. Ii Peter three:4" [sic. 2 Peter i:4] in John Rippon'southward A Selection of Hymns (1787). The author was listed simply every bit "G" Although some scholars are non convinced of this attribution, "Chiliad" presumably refers to Richard Nifty, vocal leader in the London church where Rippon was minister. With minor alterations, stanzas 1, 3-five, and 7 are included from the original seven stanzas.

"How House a Foundation" is a noble text, full of condolement for God'south people whose "foundation" of faith is rooted in the Word (st. 1) and whose lives experience divine protection when they face "deep waters" and "fiery trials" (st. 2-iv). The final stanza clearly moves beyond the text's Onetime Attestation source and proclaims the certainty of redemption in Christ.

A Baptist minister, Rippon (b. Tiverton, Devonshire, England, 1751; d. London, England, 1836) was chosen to the Baptist Church in Carter Lane, London, in 1772 equally an interim pastor. After becoming head pastor, he stayed in that position for sixty-three years. He also edited the Baptist Annual Register (1790-1802). His main contribution to hymnody was his compiling of A Selection of Hymns from the All-time Authors, Intended As an Appendix to Dr. Watts' Psalms and Hymns (1787) and A Selection of Psalm and Hymn Tunes (1791). These publications became popular in both England and America. Nevertheless, later hymnologists accept often been frustrated past Rippon's work because he frequently did not point the authors of the hymns and often contradistinct the texts without acknowledging his changes.

Liturgical Use:
Many occasions of worship that focus on redemption and providence; as a hymn of comfort for those in difficult or tragic circumstances; baptism; profession of faith; prior to reading of Scripture.

=====================

How business firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord. Keen. [Perseverance of the Saints.] This hymn appeared in Rippon's Pick, 1787, No. 128, in seven stanzas of four lines, and entitled, "Exceeding bang-up and precious promises." In 1822 information technology was repeated in A. Fletcher'southward Baptist Collection of Hymns, No. 296, in 4 stanzas, the omitted stanzas existence ii., iv. & v. Two arrangements of the text were thus handed downwards to modern hymnals. In the 1835 edition of Fletcher'due south Drove, the total original text is restored. This is repeated in Spurgeon's Our Ain Hymn Book, 1866, No. 732, and other hymn-books.
The authorship of this hymn has been the subject area of much enquiry. We have (1) in modernistic editions of Rippon the name of "Kirkham"; (2) in Fletcher's 1835 edition as to a higher place, "Smashing"; (3) and in Spurgeon's Our Own Hymn Book, "George Keith."
ane. Rippon'southward original signature was "K—." In modern editions, which are not published past Dr. Rippon's representatives, the "K—" is extended into "Kirkham," but on what authority we cannot say.
ii. The ascription in Miller's Singers and Songs, 1869, p. 349, we find from the Sedgwick Manuscript, is based upon nothing merely the statement of an old woman whom Sedgwick met in an almshouse.
three. In Fletcher'southward Drove, 1822, the "K—" of Rippon is extended to "Kn," and in the edition of 1835 this is still further extended to "Keen," and then it remains. That this is more likely to exist right than either of the other two is gathered from the fact that Dr. Fletcher was assisted in his work by Thomas Walker, the editor of Dr. Rippon'southward Melody Book, to whom he particularly refers in these words:—"Peachy assistance has been obtained from Mr. Walker, Compiler of Dr. Rippon's Tune Book, and the Editor of the Companion to information technology, called Walker'southward Companion; and information technology is merely justice to admit that the principal selection of Hymns and the awarding of Tunes, has been effected past his extensive knowledge of sacred poetry, and long tried acquaintance with the science of sacred music." Preface, London, Nov. 1822.
In addition, in the Alphabetize of the "Names of such Authors of the Hymns as are known," the proper noun "Bully," with the abbreviation "Kn," is also given. Taking Mr. Walker'due south acquaintance with Dr. Rippon'southward work into business relationship, we are justified in concluding that the ascription to this hymn must exist that of an unknown person of the proper noun of Slap-up.
The following hymns bear the same signature as the above in Dr. Rippon'due south Pick, 1787.
ane. In songs of sublime adoration and praise (Distinguishing Grace). This is given in Spurgeon's Our Own Hymn Book, on Sedgwick'southward authority, as "George Keith, 1787."
2. The Bible is justly esteemed (Holy Scriptures).
From the fact that these two hymns have a common signature in Rippon's Selection, 1787, with "How firm a foundation," &c, and that the three appeared there for the first time, we also accredit them to Keen. Miller, in his Singers and Songs of the Church, 1869, bases his notation on George Keith on the unsupported word of D. Sedgwick equally higher up.

"How Business firm a Foundation" is a hymn that for over two centuries has assured believers of the faithfulness of Christ and the certainty of hope. The starting time verse acts virtually as an introduction to the rest of the text, giving us cause to stop and ponder the Word of assurance that God has given u.s., described in greater particular in the next four verses. Those four verses are in fact paraphrases of Scripture passages: Isaiah 41:10, 43:2, Romans 8:iii-39, Hebrews 13:v, and Deuteronomy 31:6. In the words of this hymn so, we comport with us the Give-and-take from God, and the phone call to trust in that Discussion. But God's Word is expansive and non limited to letters on a page - the 5th verse moves united states of america to a trust in the Word fabricated flesh in Jesus Christ. Thus we are assured by the words nosotros sing, the Word we are given, and the Word made mankind, of the steadfastness of God and His unfailing love.

Text:

This hymn, believed past almost to have been written by Richard Keen, was first published in 1787 in John Rippon's A Selection of Hymns (Rippon was minister at the London church Keen attended). Bang-up'south text originally included seven stanzas and was entitled "Exceeding great and precious promises." It appeared in A. Fletcher Baptist's 1822 Collection of Hymns in only four stanzas, omitting the original second, fourth and fifth. Today, hymnals include anywhere from three to five stanzas, oft the original first, third, fourth, fifth and seventh stanzas. The number of verses constitute in each hymnal differs, merely the actual text has not been altered much. When all five stanzas are used, the text powerfully moves from references to the faithfulness of God in the Old Attestation to the certainty of the faithfulness of Christ.

Tune:

Almost every hymnal and version sets the text to the bearding tune FOUNDATION, kickoff appearing nether the proper name SINCERITY and SOLICITUDE in Southern Harmony, and appearing with this text in the Sacred Harp. It now appears in most hymnals in the key of Thou. In the Episcopal Hymnal, the text is prepare to both FOUNDATION and LYONS, by Haydn. A less commonly used tune is ADESTES FIDELES, all-time known every bit the tune for "O Come, All Ye True-blue."

A royal and stately American folk tune, the accompaniment should support the message of the text, the steadfastness and faithfulness of our God. Here are a few options for accompaniment:

Michael Bill of fare's Irish version: Bill of fare really emphasizes the text by singing in a firm, adamant meter and voice
Sovereign Grace's piano led version: the quieter and simpler pianoforte accompaniment really draws out and supports the voices of the congregation – annotation the key change into the 4th verse

When/Why/How:

Many times this hymn is used just to emphasize the value of Scripture, just it can exist used throughout the twelvemonth every bit a hymn of comfort and a proclamation or profession of organized religion. It works well as a hymn of response to a Scripture passage or sermon that calls united states to depend on God, or equally a response to the Words of Balls. Yous could use verse one as a prayer for illumination, and bring verses 2-five back later on the prayers of the people.
