1. How faithful and trustworthy too, My Father God, art Thou; The universe and all therein Thy faithfulness avow. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 2. No turning shadow could there be, Nor any change with Thee; As Thou hast been, and now Thou art, Forever Thou wilt be. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 3. Thy word, as certain as Thyself, Can never pass away; Though heav'n and earth shall disappear, Thy word abides for aye. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 4. Thy gifts without repentance are, Thy calling is the same; Thy grace forever lasting is, Thy mercy as Thy name. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 5. Thy word with Thine own faithfulness A surety is to me; By it, with Thy salvation true, I have the certainty. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 6. If, due to self, I trust Thee not, Yet Thou art faithful still; Thou never canst deny Thyself, Thy word Thou shalt fulfill. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 7. As Thou art faithful to perform Thy promise and Thy call; So, feeding on Thy faithfulness, I take Thyself withal. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me. 8. The rainbow round about Thy throne Thy faithfulness declares; This attribute forevermore The holy city bears. How stedfast is Thy faithfulness! For this I worship Thee; It is established in the heav'n, And ever stands for me.
