If you know where to get a good photo of McKenzie or Vernon (head & shoulders, at least 200×300 pixels),
The world is changing every day,
And time is swiftly passing by;
But Jesus’ love will never change,
’Twill last throughout eternity.
Refrain
He never changes, for His love
Is deep and boundless as the sea;
It’s coming from the throne above,
And flowing now for you and me.
Your friends may fail you here below,
Their love to you grow cold and strange;
Remember Jesus still is true,
And He will never, never change.
Refrain
Though friends forsake and joy depart,
Still lean on Jesus, He’s your friend;
He will sweet peace to you impart,
And be unchanging to the end.
