The flames shall not hurt you. I only design your dross to consume, and your gold to refine. 5 “The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose, I will not, I will not desert to its foes.

O God, Our Help in Ages Past

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 1,288 hymnals Topics: In Time of War/Disaster 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 Beneath the shadow of your throne Your saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is your arm alone, And our defence is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received its frame, From everlasting you are God, To endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in your sight Are like an ev'ening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all our lives away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the op'ning day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be now our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home.
