Through all the changing scenes of life,
In trouble and in joy,
The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Have nothing else to fear;
Make you His service your delight,
Your wants shall be His care.

Woke up this morning with this song singing to my spirit. God is good.
Sagamu, Ogun, Nigeria
I sang out the 2nd stanza of this hymn from my sleep this morning. I've always loved this hymn. The 5th stanza has always been a reassurance and God's unconditional promise for me.
God is closer to us than we can ever imagine if ONLY we are quiet and wait enough we WILL hear His voice.
Oh magnify the Lord with me. Exalt his name. He will rescue us when we are in distress. I love this song. It uplifts when am down. From the start of the corona19 virus, life changed for most of us. I have relied on God for the strength, and protection of family and all at large
This morning I wanted to pray for a family member in distress and it came to mind. Be blessed you all. Amen

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
