O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: AMEC1984 #61 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 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 Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 6 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!

Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, For the facing of this hour, For the facing of this hour. 2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us Scorn Thy Christ, assail His ways! Fears and doubts too long have bound us; Free our hearts to work and praise. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, For the living of these days, For the living of these days. 3 Cure Thy children’s warring madness, Bend our pride to Thy control; Shame our wanton, selfish gladness, Rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal, Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal. 4 Set our feet on lofty places; Gird our lives that they may be Armored with all Christ-like graces In the fight to set men free. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, That we fail not them nor Thee, That we fail not them nor Thee! 5 Save us from weak resignation To the evils we deplore: Let the search for Thy salvation Be our glory evermore. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, Serving Thee whom we adore, Serving Thee whom we adore. Amen.
