In God my faith is founded by Thurlow Weed — Lyrics
1. In God my faith is founded
who heaven and earth has made;
whose mind all things imagined,
whose will great gifts displayed.
We know God through Christ Jesus,
begotten as God's Son;
true light, true God eternal,
God's own, yet with God one.
2. For us and our salvation,
Christ deigned to dwell on earth,
incarnate by God's Spirit,
of Mary claimed his birth.
As flesh he lived among us,
by us was crucified;
in our contempt we scorned him,
yet for our sins he died.

About In God my faith is founded
Thurlow Weed's setting of In God my faith is founded opens with a statement of faith rooted in the creation of the universe. The SATB voices then explore the theological implications of God's providence, moving to the incarnation and redemptive sacrifice of Christ. The text reflects on Christ's resurrection, his reign in glory, and the ultimate triumph of God's kingdom through righteousness and mercy. The music reflects the profound theological assertions of the English text, offering a contemplative setting for a choir seeking to express core Christian doctrines through sacred music.
