Old-Line Primitive Baptist Hymn and Tune Book

37 (C.M.) Tate and Brady

Through all the changing scenes of life,

In trouble and in joy,

The praises of my God shall still

My heart and tongue employ.

Of His deliv'rance I will boast,

Till all that are distressed

From my example comfort take,

And charm their griefs to rest.

O 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;

Deliv'rance He affords to all

Who on His succor trust.

Oh, make but trial of His love;

Experience will decide.

How blest are they, 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,

He'll make your wants His care.
