Hymn “Great Is Thy Faithfulness”

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

Verse 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

Verse 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

Verse 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

Blessed be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness

Still I will say

Blessed be Your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's all as it should be

On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord blessed be Your name

Benediction

February Benevolence - World Vision

Advocacy

Monetary donations are always welcome, but there are other ways to make a difference.

“Advocacy is an essential element of World Vision’s work, along with long-term community development and emergency response. As we work alongside communities to provide safety, health, and opportunity for every child, our advocacy challenges the policies, systems, structures, practices and attitudes that make it difficult for vulnerable children and their families to experience “life in all its fullness” (John 10:10).”

“We’ve had the privilege of making history. Over the last two decades, World Vision has helped bring about historic change by playing a key role in the formation of policies that affect millions of lives around the world. Learn about the impact we’ve made as we followed God’s call to speak up on behalf of those living in extreme poverty.
