Thomas
Chisholm was born in 1866 in the state
of Kentucky. He wrote over 1200 hymns,
such as: "Living For Jesus," and "O, to
be Like Thee." But the hymn we remember
the most is "Great Is Thy Faithfulness."
Chisholm did not write this hymn because
something great and miraculous had taken
place in his life. No, he wrote this
because over his entire life he had
learned to see the greatness of God.
At the age of 75, he wrote:
"My income has not been large at any
time due to impaired health in the
earlier years which has followed me on
until now. Although I must not fail to
record here the unfailing faithfulness
of a covenant-keeping God and that He
has given me many wonderful displays of
His providing care, for which I am
filled with astonishing gratefulness."

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.
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.
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,
Blessing 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 hath provided
-
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me!
