Great is Thy Faithfulness

We had a farewell barbeque party for 2 friends who will be going to Canada soon. It is the never-ending love and faithfulness of God that we are thankful for, it is God we are all indebted to.

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 will 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!
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.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

  2. Indeed, he has been and forever faithful. I always remember this verse:

    2Ti 2:13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful-- for he cannot deny himself.

  3. I hope you come to Canada to visit them. It's kind of close to Michigan. Part of it, anyways.
