A Call for a Revival of the Great Hymns and Gospel Songs of the Church in our Worship Services

The Rev. Dr. Hugh H. Morgan

     In our modern era of the church, I have noticed that in some of our churches, not all, there is an absence of singing the great hymns and Gospel songs of the church. Consequently, our youth, young couples and older people are not getting in worship the kinds of Biblical theology that has been put to music to satisfy the souls of the worshipers and prepare them for daily living as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ.
     I feel compelled to begin a series of publishing some of the hymns and Gospel songs that have stood the test of time and have provided a solace for peace in the battles of life, an affirmation of one's salvation and walk with Jesus Christ, and a comfort to those who know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
​     Today, let us read and hear the hymn entitled, "Great is Thy Faithfulness."
 "Great is Thy Faithfulness."
You may watch and listen to the Bill and Gloria Gaither, the Homingcoming Singers, featuring Wes Hampton singing tenor by Click Here on this hyperlink I have made for you to enjoy.

1  “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.
​
      “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!

2  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.

3  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!
