Happy Thanksgiving

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 for ever will be 


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

Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest
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 hath provided
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me

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 

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


i can't help but feel thankful when i hear this song, 
one of my favorite hymns of all time.
this thanksgiving i'm thankful for my family
my friends
my church
my health
my country
and so much more... 
but most of all, i'm thankful for a Savior that keeps loving me 
even when i'm the most unlovable.
His faithfulness and assurance is a surprising but welcomed gift 
when i am weary, down trodden and feeling unworthy.
(which is... ahem... all the time)
Thank You Lord for those tender mercies!


happy canadian thanksgiving to all!
