Check out this moving live performance as Cody Carnes sings ‘Firm Foundation.’ The song is a favorite during Sunday morning worship, assuring Jesus’s followers that our Heavenly Father is always there for His children!
The message in ‘Firm Foundation,’ co-written by Cody Carnes, Chandler Moore, and Austin Davis and released in 2021, is simple. When we put our trust in Jesus, we will never be alone. Regarding the inspiration behind ‘Firm Foundation,’ the 35-year-old singer, songwriter, and worship pastor said, “The world can be in chaos all outside our windows, but when we build our house on Jesus, we can have confidence knowing that our foundation is secure. We’re not going down!”
Cody and the five talented musicians who join him on stage are joyful and passionate, as are the throngs of worshippers in the audience. They raise their hands and lift their voices to Jesus. It is a goose-bump-inducing and skin-tingling 8.5 minutes of worship.
At 6.0, Cody and the band move right into another equally inspiring song. They sing ‘Great Are You Lord,’ written by All Sons and Daughters. Here are the first four lines of ‘Great Are You Lord:’
‘You give life, You are love
You bring light to the darkness
You give hope, You restore
Every heart that is broken’
Teachers recognize that students learn differently—unique learners require different approaches to help them comprehend the material being taught. Sometimes, it’s like that in church. Different types of ministers and music connect or resonate with various believers.
Some prefer the two rousing worship songs in this live video. And, others enjoy the quieter, more formal old hymns like ‘Great is Thy Faithfulness’ and ‘How Great Thou Art,' which have similar messages and meanings to those performed by Cody Carnes and crew.
One thing is for sure. As much as worshiping fills our souls, our Father in Heaven loves it more! When our voices are raised in praise, He is delighted!
Let’s never fail to sing praises to God, because He is faithful, and He is great!
“God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9
