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. 

2.  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. 

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:

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. ____________________________________________________________
