A Hymn For The New Month

O God, our Help in ages past
Our Hope for years to come
Our Shelter from the stormy blast
And our Eternal Home

Beneath 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 the watch that keeps 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 troubles last

And our Eternal Home
