Changes

My 2nd cousin (my dad's cousin), Jenny Venville Nicol, from British Columbia sent me the following lyrics to an old hymn this morning. Thanks, Jenny! Our changeless, eternal God walks with us through the many and varied changes of life! Hallelujah!

Through all the changing scenes of life,
In trouble and in joy,
The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.

Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
With me exalt His name;
When in distress to Him I called,
He to my rescue came.

The hosts of God encamp around
The dwellings of the just;
Deliverance He affords to all
Who on His succor trust.

Oh, make but trial of His love,
Experience will decide
How blest they are, and only they,
Who in His truth confide.

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.
