O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.
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.
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.
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.
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5
Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
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.
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guard while life shall last,
And our eternal home.

The indebt of this song unfolded the mystery of God, His Majesty, His supremacy, His Mightiness and His unending grace. More than a song if well meditated. May God's unfalling grace never siezed over us and this perverse generation. Amen.

Like a number of people before me, this hymn came to me this morning as I was giving my day to the Lord. Since a child it has always been a source of comfort, trusting in God’s constant and eternal presence as we journey through life’s twist and turns and beyond.

This song came to my mind while praying for my nation Nigeria. We sure do need God's help. He alone has been our help in times past. And our hope for years to come.
Please if you read this comment, pray for Nigeria, we are going through stuff now.
