Listen to Anthem Lights, Israel Houghton, One Sonic Society & Others Cover "Great is Thy Faithfulness"

As we come to the end of 2018, one of the hymns that best express our thanks to God is "Great is Thy Faithfulness."  No song has the ability to capture the absolute faithfulness of God as this hymn does.  Thus, in an effort to celebrate God's faithfulness at the threshold of an upcoming new year, we have compiled a short list of covers of this great hymn from Anthem Lights to Shane and Shane to Israel Houghton to Don Moen to One Sonic Society.

Thomas Chisholm wrote "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" as a testament to God's faithfulness through his very ordinary life.  Born in a log cabin in Franklin, Kentucky, Chisholm became a Christian when he was twenty-seven and entered the ministry when he was thirty-six, though poor health forced him to retire after just one year. During the rest of his life, Chisholm spent many years living in New Jersey and working as a life insurance agent.  Still, even with a desk job, he wrote nearly 1,200 poems throughout his life, including several published hymns.

Chisholm explained toward the end of his life, "My income has not been large at any time due to impaired health in the earlier years which has followed me on until now.  Although I must not fail to record here the unfailing faithfulness of a covenant-keeping God and that He has given me many wonderful displays of His providing care, for which I am filled with astonishing gratefulness."
