Hymn #81

O God, Our Help

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,
Still may we dwell secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense 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

O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come;
Be thou our guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home!
