O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,258 hymnals Topics: God as Help 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 Under the shadow of your throne your saints have dwelt secure; sufficient is your arm alone, and our defense is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, or earth received its frame, 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, soon bears us all away; we fly forgotten, as a dream dies at the op’ning day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, our hope for years to come, still be our guard while troubles last, and our eternal home!

If God Had Not Been on Our Side

Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: God as Help Lyrics: 1 If God had not been on our side and had not come to aid us, our foes with all their pow'r and pride would surely have dismayed us, for we, his flock, would have to fear the devil's wolves, both far and near, who rise in might against us. 2 Their furious wrath, did God permit, would surely have consumed us and as a deep and yawning pit with life and limb entombed us. A hellish storm would o'er us roll from Satan, who desires our soul and seeks to overwhelm us. 3 Blest be the LORD, who foiled their threat that they could not devour us. Our souls, like birds, escaped their net; they could not overpow'r us. The snare is broken— we are free! Our helper and our strength is he who made the earth and heavens. Scripture: Psalm 124 Used With Tune: WÄCHTERLIED Text Sources: Tr.: The Lutheran Hymnal, 1941, alt.
