Through all the changing scenes of life

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.
2
Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
  With me exalt His name;
When in distress to Him I called,
  He to my rescue came.
3
The hosts of God encamp around
  The dwellings of the just;
Deliverance He affords to all
  Who on His succor trust.
4
Oh, make but trial of His love,
  Experience will decide
How blest they are, and only they,
  Who in His truth confide.
5
Fear Him, ye saints, and you will then
  Have nothing else to fear;
Make you His service your delight,
  Your wants shall be His care.

Indeed through all the changing scenes of life (which will always happen), in trouble and in joy, may the praises of my God still my heart and tongue employ.

Today is my birthday and was thinking about a song to thank God and this song came immediately to mind and I started singing. I love this song. I cannot ask God for a better birthday song than this 🥰. Hope 2021 will be a better year. Happy birthday to me.

This is my favorite hymn I love. Anytime I hear or sing this song I feel the presence of God with host of heaven. It also reminds me that there is judgement after death and God knows his children in what ever challenges they go through.

This song was one of my late mother's favourite hymns, it always brings me comfort in time's of sadness, or trials, this is a wonderful message to all of God's children, especially in the light of what we are living with in the world today.

"Fear him ye saints and then you will have nothing else to fear" I woke up this morning with these words of the song on my mind. Oh how reassuring and peaceful to know God is still with me as he promised. Oh be still my heart be still for God is always on time

My late Dad's all time favorite Hymn! A true reflection of a true man of God who loved; served and sought his Lord so fervently. In his memory we have set up The Changing Scenes Foundation through which we hope to serve God through being a blessing to his Children. Rest in perfect peace Dad. Thank you for introducing this amazing; awesome hymn to me and above all; for being the coolest Dad in my part of the World. Love you always.

This hymn brought me great comfort, we are indeed seeing the changing scenes of life but the reassurance of God being in control is excellent. We all need this comforting reminder. Thank God for the author

My Mum shared this Hymn with me a few weeks before she went to be with the Lord (82) on 4/March 2020, it reminds me of her kind humility, the peace she enjoyed through Christ, trusting in Him is good advice to remember, from God through the writer via my dear Mother, looking forward to talking to her again in our dear Lords presence:) but even more to seeing our saviour!

What else? When troubled, I called HIM and he came to my aid. I love this hymn and I am very grateful for the energy I draw from the text in times of adversity. So far, so good. May the blessings be.
