Through All the Changing Scenes of Life
Tate and Brady's New Version, 1696, 1698· Post-Reformation
Verse 1
Through all the changing scenes of life,
In trouble and in joy,
The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.
Verse 2
Of His deliverance I will boast,
Till all that are distressed
From my example comfort take,
And charm their griefs to rest.
Verse 3
O magnify the Lord with me,
With me exalt His Name;
When in distress to Him I called,
He to my rescue came.
Verse 4
The hosts of God encamp around
The dwellings of the just;
Deliverance He affords to all
Who on His succor trust.
Verse 5
O make but trial of His love;
Experience will decide,
How blest are they, and only they,
Who in His truth confide.
Verse 6
Fear Him, ye saints; and you will then
Have nothing else to fear:
Make you His service your delight,
He’ll make your wants His care.
