Hymns of Christian Faith and Worship
 
WEEK 5

 
 
Great Is Thy Faithfulness
Thomas Obadiah Chisolm - 1923
The LORD’S lovingkindness indeed never ceases,
for His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22-23
 
In Chisolm’s early life he was ill. He was saved at age 27 and found comfort in Lamentations 3:22,23. His correspondence to a musician friend included a poem based on this verse. His friend composed a musical score, and in 1923 it was published. Several years later a Moody Bible Institute professor discovered the song and began using it in chapel on a regular basis. In 1945 George Beverly Shea began singing it a Billy Graham events and is now known around the world.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness

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 spring-time 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

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 then thousand beside!
Refrain
