Background

Cody Carnes released "Firm Foundation (He Won't)" on December 10, 2021.[6] The song was his third and final single of 2021, following the releases of "Too Good to Not Believe" alongside Brandon Lake and "Hope of the Ages" with Hillsong Worship and Reuben Morgan.[7] Carnes shared the inspiration behind the song,[8] saying:

In such a shaky season, it was burning in my heart to write a song that declared what Jesus teaches us in Matthew 7. It says, Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 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! This new song celebrates that truth. I pray it blesses you.

Composition

"Firm Foundation (He Won't)" is composed in the key of B♭ with a tempo of 75 beats per minute and a musical time signature of 6
8.[9]

Reception

Critical response

Joshua Andre of 365 Days of Inspiring Media gave a positive review of the song, saying: "The long and short of it is that "Firm Foundation (He Won't)", is a song that we all need to hear. Catchy in its delivery, and poppy in its musical style; it is the lyrics that really hit home for me."[10] Jono Davies, reviewing for Louder Than The Music, said of the song: "As a song overall this does what it says on the tin, a strong worship song with a strong and powerful message that I hope you take heart from. Cody is a great worship leader and is a great blessing and with this song he has made another great song that will touch peoples lives."[11]
