Thou hast turned my mourning into dancing for me

give the fruit of your lips to ardent to praise God name, as the Holy of Israel.

Allelujah praise the Lord.

This song was written by Pastor Willy Hanssen Sr. in Motueka New Zealand after a tragic passing of his wife Elizabeth. Willy later went to Iceland where his ministry touch many lives.

Thank You Lord.

I would not be SILENT

Praise You Lord! You've turned our mourning into dancing and girded us with gladness! We will give thanks unto Thee forever!

Psa 30:11-12

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;

You have loosened my sackcloth

And girded me with rejoicing,

That my glory might sing psalms to You and not be silent.

O Jehovah my God, I will praise You forever.

God has always put a song in my heart. Every morning I get up singing a song. This song usually start singing in my sleep. Today this was the song I got up singing. Thanks I found it playing on your website. God bless.

For Yichien, my sister in Christ: praise the Lord Spirit that He has comforted you. May the joy of the Lord remain in your mingled spirit each moment of your life unto eternity. Just want to share with you that one of the most favorite sung hymns, Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine; the writer Fanny Crosby, had your experience, too. She wrote this hymn, after she received the comfort from the Lord Spirit. May we Love our Lord Jesus more and more each day. The Lord loves us beyond our knowledge. Love you in Christ. Amen.

I heard this song performed many years ago by Willie Hanson of Australia. His father wrote it. When he was a young man living at home his mother passed away. The household was in sad and in mourning. Heaviness and grief. And one night he awoke in the middle of the night with his father playing the piano accordion to this tune "..thou hast turned my mourning into dancing for me....." and singing this joyful song to the Lord.

Always has been one of my favorites. It is very powerful.

A very famous child actor in Taiwan, after many sufferings in her life, became a very joyful Christian and liked this song very much.

I woke up singing this song, but could not remember all the words, after crying for the last few weeks about my children, and finally having prayer for this. I woke up with this song. And you made me even happier, by playing it on the piano, I love the piano.
