An ordinary man wrote the MOST EXTRAORDINARY hymn: Great is Thy Faithfulness
Who hasn't sung "Great is Thy Faithfulness" with tears in their eyes? It's a great hymn of faith, and Thomas Chisolm who wrote it was a man of great faith himself.

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.
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!
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!

“If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” II Timothy 2:13
Thank you for performing that great hymn declaring God's mercy,love, and faithfulness everyday.
Absolutely a blessing. Thanks 🙏🏾 for sharing the story behind this great hymn, your breakdown of the lyrics and singing of this hymn. I wish we were still singing hymns in the church. God bless🙌🙌🙌🙌
Great is your Faithfulness to me 🙏✝️☝️
Thank you so much. I'm getting baptized this weekend and decide to fast a week before. This song has been my every day song since I started fasting and it's more and more meaningful as the days pass by. It's so refreshing to have this information and feel these words indeed. God bless you
Lovely, you are good to remind us to really stop and feel the words and God's love for us and the joy of living a faithful life. God's blessings to you.
Love that beautiful story about that pretty hymn love that hymn what a blessing
Great is God's faithfulness to me indeed! And to YOU and to everyone, even to those who do not acknowledge it through ignorance or rebellion or indifference. He lets His rain fall on the good and the evil. He is kind and extends His protection upon us all as He sees fit. The question is: How faithfulness are we to God? We could never be to Him as faithful as He is to us but we can be as faithful as is humanly possible for us to be to Him. Father Abraham was called the father of the faithful. I want so to be faithful to my Heavenly Father, do you? To serve Him faithfully, to keep His Commandments, statutes and laws as Abraham did. To please God in every way with the Holy Spirit's help.
Thank you AGAIN Luke. Such a wonderful way to start my Sunday before the hustle and bustle of getting ready for church!
Thank you. I love this hymn. Hymns feed my soul like none of the new songs do.
I am always blessed and ministered to by these songs. God words and filling me with awe and love. Maranatha 💜
Such a beautiful song
Thank you for such a thoughtful and rich explanation of this and other hymns. Your encouraging and gentle challenging words are appreciated! I personally was touched by the fact that the writer of the words was just an ordinary Person with a relatively ordinary life who saw the faithfulness of God in ordinary circumstances. Not everyone has had extreme circumstances they have gone through before experiencing His faithfulness. God bless you in this ministry of sharing.
My favourite hymn.
God is faithful. Thank you for sharing!
Such a beautiful song. Saw Austin Stone perform it, and immediately loved it.
I think that you are correct in terms of his recitation of the seasons, but I think that it could also paint a bigger picture of life. We all go through different seasons and chapters in life. There are the warm summers, and the cold and dark of winter (notice that he doesn’t take them in order-could he have shifted from summer warmth to winter cold in some way in life?) They don’t always go in order! Flower-filled springtime and bountiful harvest: we experience all of these in different phases and cycles of life. BUT through it all, our Lord is always and ever faithful. That’s not just a trait of our Lord; it’s who He is! Oh, what surpassing comfort and what abundant joy! Hallelujah!!😊🙌❤️ My father compiled three hymn books over the course of his lifetime ministry. These are all very precious. My sister and I grew up listening to and singing them as he played them on the piano. What a rich treasure trove they represent. Thanks so very much for sharing them. I am, in turn, sharing your channel widely, always to great response and acclaim. May our Lord lead, guide and bless you, as only He can! All to His glory and in His marvelous grace!🙏
Beautiful song! I love it!
Probably my favourite hymn 🙏🏾
Thank God for His faithfulness even though we are not worth it.....
What a beautiful song, one of my favorites. I had tears streaming down my face signing this with you, oh, how faithful is our God! Your comments about our mundane life was just what I needed to hear. I can't play an instrument like you, tell of these wonderful songs or do outstanding things, I so often wondered why Jesus would want me. I'm no one special, but Jesus has been so faithful to me and provided when I was in need. One day when I get to meet you in Heaven, I hope to sing all these songs with you to our Lord. Bless you, keep your videos coming. Love from Minnesota, USA.
I so enjoyed this!!
Praise The Lord God, our Father in heaven, in the midst of a chaotic world, Lord You reserve for You and us, Your children, our brothers and sisters who love You Lord and continually faithfully serving, praising You!! Thank You Lord for our brother Luke Powell!
One of my favorite hymns too. Thank you.
Thank you so much👏👏🌹
Amen and amen. Thank you, bro Luke!
My brother Luke: I am always touched by your analysis of GOD'S Inspired music!!!
I love this hymn so much. And I am so thankful that the Holy Spirit impressed you to share the history, lyrics, and singing of the hymns. This is one of my favorite Inspirational programs. May God continue to bless you and your wife.
Thank you for sharing I enjoyed this
