Lyrics

Verse 1
Great is Thy faith­ful­ness, O God my Fa­ther; (Lam. 3:23)
There is no sha­dow of turn­ing with Thee; (James 1:17)
Thou chang­est not, Thy com­pas­sions, they fail not; (Mal. 3:6, Num. 23:19, Lam. 3:22)
As Thou hast been, Thou for­ev­er will be. (Heb. 13:8, Ps. 102:27)

Chorus
Great is Thy faith­ful­ness! (Lam. 3:23)
Great is Thy faith­ful­ness! (Lam. 3:23)
Morning by morn­ing new mer­cies I see. (Lam. 3:23)
All I have need­ed Thy hand hath pro­vid­ed; (Phil. 4:19, Matt. 6:31-33, Luke 12:29-31)
Great is Thy faith­ful­ness, Lord, un­to me! (Lam. 3:23)

Verse 2
Summer and win­ter and spring­time and har­vest,
Sun, moon and stars in their cours­es ab­ove (Ps. 19:1, Rom. 1:20)
Join with all na­ture in ma­ni­fold wit­ness
To Thy great faith­ful­ness, mer­cy and love.

Verse 3
Pardon for sin and a peace that en­dur­eth (John 14:27)
Thine own dear pre­sence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for to­day and bright hope for to­mor­row, (Lam. 3:24)
Blessings all mine, with ten thou­sand be­side! (Eph. 1:3)
