Great is His Faithfulness to Me














(E. took this shot yesterday afternoon during our bird count of the farm. I love his way with lighting.)

A rendition of this song played on the radio yesterday afternoon. This hymn never fails to stir my heart to praise and thanksgiving.

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 has been
Thou forever wilt be.

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!

-- Verse 1, Lyrics by Thomas Obediah Chisholm (I love that name - it sounds so old and lovely); Music by William Marian Runyan
