Our God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Brian Wren; Isaac Watts Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #182 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Our God, our help in ages past Lyrics: 1 Our God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, our shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home. 2 Before the hills in order stood, or earth received its frame, from everlasting you are God, and holy is your Name. 3 A thousand ages, in your sight, are like an evening gone; short as the watch that ends the night, before the rising sun. 4 Time, like an ever-rolling stream, bears all who breathe away, they fly , forgotten, as a dream dies in the dawning day. 5 Our God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, our guide and guard while life shall last, and our eternal home.

O God, our help in ages past

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #136 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, our shelter from the stormy blast, and our eternal home; 2 Beneath the shadow of Your throne Your people lived secure; sufficient is Your arm alone, and our defence is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, or earth from darkness came, from everlasting You are God, to endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in Your sight are like an evening gone; short as the watch that ends the night, before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream, will bear us all away; We pass forgotten, as a dream dies at the dawning day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come: be our defence while life shall last, and our eternal home!
