Verse 1

O God our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Our shelter from the stormy blast
And our eternal home

Verse 2

Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure
Sufficient is Thy arm alone
And our defense is sure

Verse 3

Before the hills in order stood
Or Earth received her frame
From everlasting
Thou are God
To endless years the same

Verse 4

A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as the watch
That ends the night
Before the rising sun

Verse 5

O God our help in ages past
Our hope for years to come
Be Thou our guard
While troubles last
And our eternal home
