103 - O God, Our Help in Ages Past 

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 thy throne, 
Still may we dwell secure; 
Sufficient is thine arm alone, 
And our defense is sure.

3
Before the hills in order stood, 
Or earth received her frame, 
From everlasting, thou art God, 
To endless years the same.

4
A thousand ages, in thy sight, 
Are like an evening gone; 
Short as the watch that ends the night, 
Before the rising sun.

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!
