Hymn Medley

(album: Jubilee - 2021)

Your faithfulness is great
Your faithfulness toward us is great
Thank You for Your consistency
You're faithful, You're faithful
You're faithful, You're faithful

Part I: 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
You forever, ever will be

Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning, new mercies I see
All I have needed Your, Your hands always provided (Thank You, thank You)
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me

Summer and winter, 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

Let's sing it together
Great is Thy faithfulness (Hallelujah)
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning, new mercies we still see
All I have needed Thy, Your hands always provided (Always provided)
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me
Lord, unto me

You've been faithful to me
You've been faithful to us
There's not been one time where You've dropped us
You've been faithful to us
Through the ages, through the years
You've been faithful to us
You've been faithful to us
As a people, as a generation
You've been faithful to us
Things aren't always perfect, we may not understand
But You've been faithful to us

Part II: 'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus

'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
Just to take Him at His Word (I don't have to stress)
Just to rest upon His promise
And to know, "Thus saith the Lord!"

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er
Jesus, You're my Jesus, precious Jesus (Hallelujah)
Oh, for grace to trust Him more
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er
Jesus, Jesus, faithful Jesus
Oh, for grace to trust Him more

We need grace
To trust You more
Things don't look too good right now, but
Give us grace to trust You more
We wanna believe, help our unbelief, God
Give us grace to trust You more

Part III: It Is Well with My Soul

When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul (Hallelujah)
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say (I've been taught to say)
It is well, it is well with my soul (Even in this world)

It is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
It is well (It is well) (It may not feel good, but)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul (Hallelujah)
One more time, just real loud, say
Oh, it is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul; Encourage yourself)
It is well, it is well with my soul (Hey, yeah, yeah)
No matter who comes, no matter what goes
It is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul

Father, in the name of Jesus
I pray for those discouraged
I pray for those confused
I pray for those who have no more hope
Who are angry
Who are frustrated, who are tired
Who are enraged
Who are asking questions
Who are looking for You
Father, I pray just by Your power, by Your Spirit
Whoo, that You settle their souls, Father
Settle our souls
Before You can do anything outward
Work on us inward, settle, settle our souls, Father
To be able to manage what You're gonna do
Settle our souls
To be able to be enlarged and stretched
And have the capacity for what You're gonna do
Settle, settle us, Father
Settle us
Settle the nation, hallelujah!
Settle the, whoo, yeah
Settle the angry
Settle the tired, settle the frustrated
You said, "Come unto me, all of you who are tired, who are weary
Who are tired of fighting, who are tired of yelling
Who are tired of being unheard
Come, come to Me
And I will give you rest"
Father, I thank You for Your rest, hallelujah!
I thank You for Your rest over our culture, yeah
I thank You for Your rest over our generation, hallelujah!
I thank You for Your rest over our spirits
Over our bodies, over our minds
Over our emotions
Father, let the rest, hallelujah!
Let the rest of the Holy Spirit be released
Let the rest of the Holy Spirit
The rest of the Holy Spirit that allows us to fight and still sleep, yeah
The rest of the Holy Spirit that allows us to still speak out, but still not have anger
The rest of the Holy Spirit
The rest of the Holy Spirit
That allows us to be angry, but sin not
The rest of the Holy Spirit
That doesn't allow what people may do to us
How people may hate us
To affect what You're doing in us, whoo
Let the rest of the Holy Spirit
And Father, we release Your power
We release Your Word
We release Your Spirit
We release, yeah yeah, we release, hallelujah, whoo
We release the acts, Your acts
The hammer, the sword of the Spirit
We release that even to every evil spirit
That is, yeah, that is lingering in every space
Whether it's a work environment, whether it's a church
Father, right now in this empty room
We release Your sword of the spirit
For You said it's not by might
It's not by our power
It's not by our works
But it's by Your Spirit
So Father, Holy Spirit
Do what You need to do in the hearts
Do what You need to do in the minds
By Your Spirit, move
By Your Spirit, move
By Your Spirit, move
Turn the hearts of men
Transform the hearts of men
Father, by Your Spirit, move
We're not praying empty prayers but we're standing on Your faithfulness
Whoo, whoo, whoo
You've carried us, we're standing on Your faithfulness
You've carried us through Jim Crow, we're standing on Your faithfulness
You've carried us through slavery, we're standing on Your faith
You have been faithful to do it before and we know You're gonna do it again
That's what we're standing on
Carried us through the Civil War, we're standing
On Your faithfulness
Your consistency
Your never-changing-ness
That's, that's what we're speaking and praying from
Some of us might not have all the hope we need
May be discouraged
But we thank You that there's an authority
That is so much stronger than our hopelessness
There's an authority that's so much stronger than our discouragement
It's the authority of our Lord, Jesus Christ
Who reigns on this earth, yeah
Who reigns on this earth
Father, have Your way
We will trust You
We will trust You
We will trust You
We will trust You

Give us grace to trust You more
Give us grace to trust You more
Give us grace to trust You more
