When I was a child, I did childish things
 
 My life was church and all it brings
 
 I'd always hear the old folks sing
 
 "He's never failed me yet!"
 
 I heard this phrase and I trusted so
 
 That one day, I would come to know
 
 The truth in which these words do hold
 
 He's never failed me yet
 
 
 With years of life came test and trial
 
 And nights when tears replaced the smile
 
 Though God was right there all the while
 
 My soul was not at rest
 
 But I lived to tell that I made it through
 
 So instead of singing 'bout the blues
 
 I bring you news to encourage you
 
 He's never failed me yet
 
 
 When clouds and the valleys come
 
 Set your eyes on the Risen Son
 
 Pray the eyes of your heart be filled with light
 
 And watch the blessed day break the night
 
 Like the three Hebrew boys that day
 
 Ooh, forced to take their fate to flames
 
 I, too, have had the choice to break
 
 And serve the world instead
 
 But I stood on the Word and did not bow
 
 Endured the steps the Lord allowed
 
 I came out stronger shouting "WOW...
 
 God's never failed me yet!"
 
 
 God is not like men who lie
 
 Nor like the son of men who die
 
 His truth will always be alive
 
 It never will be dead
 
 
 So try Him for yourself and see
 
 Those who believe, they shall receive
 
 I pray that day, you too can say
 
 "He's never failed me yet"
 
 
 Can you help me?
 
 
 He's never failed me yet
 
 He's never failed me yet
 
 He's never failed me yet
 
 
 I'm grateful for those simple words
 
 That I so often overheard
 
 Though many memories drift like birds
 
 Some still I can't forget
 
 They come back ringing right on time
 
 Like bells so heavenly, they chime
 
 That old-time phrase, now mine-oh-mine
 
 "He's never failed me yet"
 
 
 (He's never failed me yet)
 
 
 (He's never failed me yet)
