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 has 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 had 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

Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
all I have needed Thy hand had provided
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me

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

Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
all I have needed Thy hand had provided
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me
Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see




all I have needed Thy hand had provided
great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me

Overall Meaning

The song "Great is Thy Faithfulness" by Nikita is a beautiful hymn that celebrates the unwavering faithfulness of God. The song opens with the line "Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father, there is no shadow of turning with Thee". This line paints an image of God as a solid, unchanging force in the lives of Christians. The phrase "no shadow of turning" means that there is no variation in God's nature and character. The line that follows, "Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not" further emphasises God's unchanging nature. This is comforting to Christians, as it means that no matter what circumstances they may face, God will always remain the same.


The second verse describes how creation attests to God's faithfulness. The sun, moon and stars, along with all of nature, give "manifold witness" to God's love and mercy. The third verse speaks of the many blessings that God provides, including pardon for sins, peace, guidance, strength, and hope. The final verse repeats the opening lines, stating once again the great faithfulness of God. The entire song is a declaration of trust and a call to worship a faithful God who provides for His people.
