What a Faithful God We Have
A Reflection on Lamentations 3:22-23 and 2 Timothy 2:13
What a faithful God we have—not a distant, changing force,
But a covenant‑keeping Father, a steady, loving source.
Through every season, every trial, every shadow, every light,
His faithfulness endures—a never‑failing, burning bright.
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23)
Faithful when I stumble, when my own strength fails the test.
Faithful when I wander, when I cannot find my rest.
Faithful in the waiting, in the silence and the pain.
Faithful in the harvest, in the sunshine and the rain.
He does not change with circumstances, nor His promise break.
He is not a man that He should lie, nor sleep, nor slumber, nor forsake.
When I am faithless, He remains—for He cannot deny Himself.
His faithfulness is not a trophy on a distant, dusty shelf.
If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot disown Himself. (2 Timothy 2:13)
From generation to generation, His faithfulness is told.
To Abraham, to Moses, to the young and to the old.
In the wilderness, He provided; in the furnace, He was there.
On the cross, He purchased freedom; from the grave, He rose to cheer.
So I will sing of His great faithfulness—not because I've earned,
But because His lovingkindness is a lesson I have learned.
What a faithful God we have—my soul, repeat the strain.
His mercies are new every morning, and His faithfulness will reign.
Great is Your faithfulness, O God my Father.
There is no shadow of turning with Thee.
What a faithful God we have—forever He will be.
Amen.
