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
Under 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,
Be thou our guard while life shall last,
And our eternal home.
