Musical Monday

I first heard this song at a service at Hampton Park. I loved it immediately and it has continued to bless us.  It is so encouraging to know that even when we seem to be alone God never forsakes us.  This hymn has been especially sweet in the last few weeks as we have been dealing with trials in our family.  If you can please pray for me and my family, and particularly my older brother and his family.  God is so good and He is breaking us, so that He might remake us in His image. 

Title: I'll Never Forsake You

Composers/Writers: David L. Ward

Genre: Hymn

Performed by: The Steve Pettit Evangelistic Team

O soul, are you weary from wave upon wave 
Of grief and affliction whom no man can save? 
Has sickness surrounded, or unending night? 
Uncertainty stolen your joy and your might? 


O doubting, o fearful– remember His care, 
The helpless and hopeless need never despair 
For from your afflictions His glory shall spring– 
The deeper your sorrow, the louder you'll sing! 
Remember Your father– His promise, His love: 

Chorus: 
"I'll never forsake you, this pain will not break you, 
For I will remake you for unending joy; 
My promise is faithful though now it is painful; 
No power can trample my covenant love." 


Remember your Savior– His grief and His pain, 
The lonely affliction, unmerited shame. 
Though you had betrayed Him, He died in your place; 
The joy set before Him He offers by grace. 
Remember Your father– His promise, His love:

Chorus: 
"I'll never forsake you, this pain will not break you, 
For I will remake you for unending joy; 
My promise is faithful though now it is painful; 
No power can trample my covenant love."
