Eternal, Unchanging, we sing to thy praise

Author: Robert Balgarnie Young Scott Hymnal: Hymns for Worship #27 (1939) Lyrics: 1. Eternal, Unchanging, we sing to thy praise, Thy mercies are endless and righteous thy ways, Thy servants proclaim the renown of thy name, Who rulest almighty, forever the same. 2. Again we rejoice in the world thou hast made, Thy mighty creation in beauty arrayed, We thank thee for life and we praise thee for joy, For love and for hope that no pow'r can destroy. 3. We praise thee for Jesus our Master and Lord, The might of his Spirit, and truth of his Word, His comfort in sorrow, his patience in pain, The faith sure and steadfast that Jesus shall reign. 4. Though darkness surround us we lift up our voice, The faith that is in us cannot but rejoice, Eternal, Unchanging, we sing to thy praise, Thy mercies are endless and righteous thy ways.

Toronto, Ontario, February 16, 1968), theory teacher, composer and organist, was born into an Anglo-Catholic family in England and served several churches in the London area, becoming known especially for his adaptations of Gregorian chant to be able to be sung in English translation.

He also was organist at St. Paul’s, Canada’s largest Anglican church, and after 1921 at the smaller Church of St. Mary Magdalene.
