“Great Is Thy Faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22-33)
“Great Is Thy Faithfulness”: The hymn our choir sang earlier and which we all will sing at the end of this service–this is definitely an appropriate hymn of thanksgiving and praise on this Day of Thanksgiving. How true are the words of the 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!
And since today is the Day of National Thanksgiving, we can also say the same thing about the Lord’s blessings on our land, here in America: Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto us!
