O 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 Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defence 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. |

Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. |

O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while life shall last, And our eternal home. |

This song came into mind as I had my devotion. Thank you Jesus, you are indeed the God of all ages. I love you Lord!

This song came to my mind as I did my devotion this morning. As I sang it, it brought back memories of years past and reminded me that my God is the same yesterday, today and forever. The God who delivered Daniel from the lions den, who delivered Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the fiery furnace, who took Joseph from the pit to the palace... He"s still the same God today! And will be forever! Hallelujah!

This hymn came to my mind as I set on the bus and a lot if memories flashed through my mind. This was a family hymn while I was growing up and the first hymn my family sang on the first day of every new year after the mud night watch. I remember my dad and mum ambassadors of Christ. God fearing parents and I pray may their souls continue to rest in perfect peace. This hymn comes it great emotions and has given me all reasons to thank God for past, the present and my future. With this hymn I have more assurance God is in total control of all about me and will keep me to the end while I depend totally upon Him.

This song came to me in a morning devotion and I sung for years before, but like I just got the revelation. God had been my help in the past and he will be in the future and my present help in trouble now until eternity.
Thank you Jesus, right now I am so secure under the shadow of his throne.

My prayers are, and have always been, that our nation would sing this hymn from their hearts. How much more now in this pandemic which has brought the world to a stand still. Perhaps the way God is speaking to the nations.

I had to go on the net now to search out and speak to myself with this hymn. I am in a place where people expect me to be downcast and they seem concerned with my seeming stable mind. I am not unmindful of the future, no. Just that I know God is my hope for years to come.
