'Firm Foundation (He Won't) Cody Carnes Acoustic Performance

Listen to this beautiful acoustic performance of the song ‘Firm Foundation (He Won’t)’ by Cody Carnes.

“Christ is my firm foundation, the rock on which I stand, when everything around me is shaken
I’ve never been more glad, that I put my faith in Jesus ‘cause He’s never let me down
He’s faithful through generations, so why would He fail now, He won’t, He won’t"

This is such a wonderful song that is so uplifting and encouraging. And Cody’s vocals are incredible! They are just so warm and lovely to listen to.

‘Firm Foundation (He Won’t)’ reminds us of where our strength really is, and that is Jesus. He will forever be our anchor and the firm foundation of truth that we cling to.

"I’ve still got joy in chaos, I’ve got peace that makes no sense, I won’t be going under
I’m not held by my own strength ‘cause I’ve built my life on Jesus
He’s never let me down, He’s faithful in every season, so why would He fail now”

Cody talks about the song in an interview and shares his inspiration behind it.

“In a time that we lived through in the last couple years, and just the chaos and the uncertainty, it feels like everything that needs to be shaken has been shaken,” he says. “I was just thinking about that scripture in Matthew 7 where Jesus ends the entire sermon on the mount talking about building your house on the rock, building your house on the sand. And I just thought, in this last season, it was a very telling thing of where have I built my house on the rock in my life, where have I built my life on Jesus, and where have I put my hope in things that are fleeting like sand. I know this season, it really tested that for me, and I feel like for the whole world. And you really got to see where you are building your house.”

He continues: “This whole season, it was just burning in my heart to write a song about this truth of that when you build your house on Jesus, when you build your life on Jesus, you can be secure. In chaos, you can still have joy. You can still have peace. And there’s almost this joyful confidence in that.”

Christ is our firm foundation, and may we never forget this wonderful truth!
