Composer:George T. Smart (1776-1867)

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

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

4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom we adore,
Be glory, as it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

Amen.
