BRIDAL PROCESSION
GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS

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 will be.

Refrain
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,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above join
All nature in manifold witness to Thy great faithfulness,
mercy and love.
