 1 

How faithful and trustworthy too,

   My Father God, art Thou;

The universe and all therein

   Thy faithfulness avow.

 

How steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast 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 steadfast is Thy faithfulness!

   For this I worship Thee;

It is established in the heav'n,

   And ever stands for me.
