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. The busy tribes of flesh and blood, With all their cares and fears, Are carried downward by the flood, And lost in following years. 6. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 7. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Used With Tune: ST. ANN
