He Is Faithful
"They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.” Lamentations
3:23
God has given Fredericksburg Wesleyan Church a vision
for the future. As we have explored
forty days of prayer and fasting in pursuit of this dream, we have found Him to
be a faithful promise keeper. Today’s
devotional is dedicated to praising the Lord for this aspect of His character.
Prayer Focus: Praise Him
using this wonderful old hymn:
Great Is Thy Faithfulness
(Text by Thomas O. Chisholm.
Music by William M. Runyan)
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.
Chorus
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.
Repeat Chorus
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!
Repeat Chorus
