‘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.

‘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!

2 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.

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!

ALL heaven declares

the glory of the risen Lord.

Who can compare

with the beauty of the Lord?

Forever He will be

the Lamb upon the throne.

I gladly bow the knee

and worship Him alone.

2 I will proclaim

the glory of the risen Lord,

who once was slain

to reconcile man to God.

Forever You will be

the Lamb upon the throne.

I gladly bow the knee

and worship You alone.

GOD, who made the earth,

the air, the sky, the sea,

who gave the light its birth –

He cares for me.

2 God, who made the grass,

the flower, the fruit, the tree,

the day and night to pass –

He cares for me.

3 God, who made the sun,

the moon, the stars, is He

who, when life’s troubles come,

will care for me.

4 God, who sent His Son

to die on Calvary,

He, if I trust in Him,

will care for me.

Sarah Betts Rhodes, 1829-1904

WE plough the fields, and scatter

the good seed on the land,

but it is fed and watered

by God’s almighty hand;

He sends the snow in winter,

the warmth to swell the grain,

the breezes and the sunshine,

and soft refreshing rain.

All good gifts around us

are sent from heaven above,

then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord,

for all His love.

2 He only is the Maker

of all things near and far;

He paints the wayside flower;

He lights the evening star;

the winds and waves obey Him;

by Him the birds are fed;

much more to us, His children,

He gives our daily bread.

3 We thank You, then, O Father,

for all things bright and good,

the seed-time and the harvest,

our life, our health, our food:

no gifts have we to offer

for all Your love imparts,

but that which You desire,

our humble, thankful hearts.

Matthias Claudius, 1740-1815;

tr. by Jane Montgomery Campbell, 1817-78
