Text: | Great Is Thy Faithfulness |
Author: | Thomas O. Chisholm, b. 1866 |
Tune: | [Great is Thy faithfulness] |
Composer: | William M. Runyan, b. 1870 |
1 "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!
2 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. (Refrain)
3 Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside! (Refrain)
