He’s Been Faithful

Erik Swanson Martin Carol Cymbala, Poems
In my moments of fear, through every pain, every tear,
There’s a God who’s been faithful to me
When my strength was all gone, when my heart had no song
Still in love He’s proved faithful to me
 
Every word He’s promised is true;
What I thought was impossible
I’ve seen my God do.
 
He’s been faithful, faithful to me
Looking back His love and mercy I see.
Though in my heart I have questioned
Even failed to believe,
Yet, He’s been faithful, faithful to me
 
When my heart looked away, the many times I could not pray
still my God, He was faithful to me.
The days I’ve spent so selfishly, reaching out for what pleased me
Even then God was faithful to me
 
And every time I come back to Him,
He is  waiting with His open arms
And I know once again.
 
He’s been faithful, faithful to me
Looking back His love and mercy I see.
Though in my heart I have questioned
Even failed to believe,
Yet, He’s been faithful, faithful to me
 
-Carol Cymbala, 1989
