1 verse:
O God, our Help in ages past,
Our Hope for years to come,
Our Shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal Home!
2 verse:
Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure!
3 verse:
Before the hills in order stood,
Or Earth received its frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.
4 verse:
A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone,
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5* verse:
Time, like an ever-rolling stream
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the op’ning day.
