 1 

He faileth not, for He is God;

He faileth not, His grace how good!

He faileth not, His Word is clear;

If we have God, whom need we fear?

 
 2 

The highest mount, He can make plain;

The wildest flood, He can restrain!

God of Impossibilities!

Poor puny man, now learn His ways.

 
 3 

The axe did swim on Jordan's wave!

Our God the Red Sea's waters clave!

He stopped the sun! Made long the day!

This is the God to whom we pray.

 
 4 

He bars the sea with feeble sand!

The proud waves bow at His command!

If God is thine, what more your need?

Can He not work for you indeed?

 
 5 

Our God is love; your needs are known;

His promises He'll fully own.

Our gracious God bows down His ear

The feeblest, weakest cry to hear.

 
 6 

Our God is light, and never yet,

One promise did He e'er forget.

His promises in Christ the Son

Are fully pledged, Yea and Amen.

 
 7 

Our faithful God, faith cannot break,

Nor death, nor hell, His promise shake!

Who ask in faith, He'll not deny;

His Word is sure, He must reply.

 
 8 

He faileth not, let all men hear;

He faileth not, His Word is clear.

He faileth not, His grace how good;

He faileth not, for He is God!
