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. |

Love this song.
Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria
Takes me back about 26 years ago, my first year in secondary school to be precise. I'm assured today that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever more. So happy hearing and singing this hymn once again.

The hymn is one of my best—it keeps reminding me of the fact that without Him (God), I can do nothing. That God the Holy Spirit is all the Help I need in all matters in life.

Since my High school years, this song has ministered to me and continuing. The stanzas speak of hope in the only entity that matters most above all things - God. Those that found refuge in Him have never been taken by surprise of what life might bring to them.

O God our help in ages past is really a masterpiece. We sometimes forget that if not for God who has been our helper, our situation would have been worst.
