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.

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!

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

(Sheet Music)

1. God sent His son, they called Him Jesus;
    He came to love, heal and forgive;
    He lived and died to buy my pardon,
    An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!

Refrain:

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,

Because He lives, all fear is gone;

Because I know He holds the future,

And life is worth the living,

Just because He lives!

2. How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
    And feel the pride and joy he gives;
    But greater still the calm assurance:
    This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!

3. And then one day, I‵ll cross the river,
    I‵ll fight life‵s final war with pain;
    And then, as death gives way to victory,
    I‵ll see the lights of glory and I‵ll know He lives!

Scripture Reference: 

    And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. (Genesis 28:11-12)

1. Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!
    E‵en though it be a cross
    That raiseth me,
    Still all my song shall be,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!

2. There let my way appear
    Steps unto heav‵n;
    All that Thou sendest me
    In mercy giv‵n;
    Angels to beckon me
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!

3. Or if on joyful wing,
    Cleaving the sky,
    Sun, moon and stars forgot,
    Upward I fly;
    Still all my song shall be,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!

4. Though like the wanderer,
    The sun gone down,
    Darkness be over me,
    My rest a stone,
    Yet in my dreams I‵d be,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!

5. Then with my waking thoughts
    Bright with Thy praise,
    Out of my stony griefs
    Bethel I‵ll raise;
    So by my woes to be
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!

1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
    O what a foretaste of glory divine!
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God,

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Savior all the day long;

This is my story, this is my song

Praising my Savior all the day long.

    Visions of rapture burst on my sight!
    Angels descending, bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
    I in my Savior am happy and blest;
    Watching and waiting, looking above,
    Fill‵d with His goodness, lost in His love.

1. Hymn: The Old Rugged Cross

Hymn: The Old Rugged Cross

Author: George Bennard (1873-1958)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
    The emblem of suffering and shame;
    And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
    For a world of lost sinners was slain.

Refrain:

  So I‵ll cherish the old rugged cross,

  Till my trophies at last I lay down;

  I will cling to the old rugged cross,

  And exchange it some day for a crown.

2. O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
    Has a wondrous attraction for me;
    For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
    To bear it to dark Calvary.

3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
    A wondrous beauty I see;
    For ‵twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
    To pardon and sanctify me.

4. To that old rugged cross I will ever be true,
    Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
    Then He‵ll call me some day to my home far away,
    Where His glory forever I‵ll share.
