I asked my soul going to sleep, "Why are so downcast my soul?" I had reasons to be, shadows of doubt had cast on me. I sang again in my mind, Jesus' love has never failed me, yet. In my fallible mind, I didn't know what to expect. Will he fail me now? But I remembered, what hasn't failed me is His love. If God is love then God has never failed me, yet. The yet is still there. But God's love is the same yesterday, today and forever. If Jesus' love never failed me yesterday, it won't fail me today and it will not fail me forever.
I love this song because it portrays my journey of faith. When something happens, I look back and see that the Lord has never failed me. Doubts come as the enemy wants to take advantage of my weakness. Then I confess, "Jesus love has never failed me, yet." The yet begin to haunt me. Will He fail me now? My fallible mind, confronted by the testimonies of the enemy begin to say He might. The song goes on to emphasize "Jesus' love" Immediately I realize, it's not about my weakness but all about the love of Jesus. The consistency and persistence of His love removes all shadows of doubt. The song then goes on to say,
"Yes, He has never failed me, He has
Never failed me
Jesus love has never failed me, yes"
