Oh God, our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home
Under the shadow of thy throne
Still may we dwell secure
Sufficient is thine arm alone
And our defense is sure
And our defense is sure
Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received her frame
From everlasting, thou art God
To endless years the same
A thousand ages, in thy sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising Sun
Before the rising Sun
Time, like an ever rolling stream
Bears all who breathe away
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day
Oh God, our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Be thou our guide while life shall last
And our eternal home
And our eternal home
