Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Refrain:
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see:
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide,
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow—
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
The lyrics I added:
Gracious art Thou, my Lord, precious Redeemer
Reaching down to my soul with Thy great love
Thy mercy offered me life everlasting
Paid by Thy blood of blest sacrifice.
Refrain:
Faithful Thou art indeed
Faithful Thou art indeed
Always available, ready to help
Thy daily guidance doth safeguard my footsteps
Leading me toward triumphant end.
Grateful am I to Thee, dear God and Saviour
Reigning in pow'r, while attending to me
Thou listen to my plea with Thy assurance
Praises be to Thy name, exalted Thou be.
Refrain:
Faithful Thou art indeed
Faithful Thou art indeed
Always available, ready to help
Thy daily guidance doth safeguard my footsteps
Leading me toward triumphant end.
