Story behind the song
We heard a great sermon about keeping a journal listing the things the Lord has done in our lives lest we easily forget like the ancient Jews did. Our God is so faithful.
Lyrics
memories fail so often
we forget our yesterdays
the answered prayers and blessings
the Lord had sent our way
and miracles forgotten
as our feet move from their place
and walk by their own reason
as our eyes drift from his face
chorus
faithfully he will lead
through the desert through the fire through the sea
and light our way through the darkest night
be our banner into battle fight our fight faithfully
as we stand to face tomorrow
we learn from yesterday
how the Lord remained so faithful
in each and every way
and rest upon the knowledge
the Lord remains the same
his word is true and he'll see us through
when we call upon his name
chorus
and when we stand before him
see him face to face
we'll praise our faithful father
and thank him for his grace
we'll thank him for his grace
chorus
