Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O God our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.
VERSE 2
Beneath the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone
And our defence is sure.
VERSE 3
Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame;
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.
VERSE 4
A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
VERSE 5
Time, like an everrolling stream
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
VERSE 6
O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.
