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 defense 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 guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home.
(Psalm 90)
Assuring, Comforting Faithful, Hopeful Lyrics, Melody and Hymn! Beautiful Organ Playing! Beautiful Singing!
This hymn was sung every morning at the start of assembly when I attended school. It fills my heart with joy.
It was often the hymn we sung in assembly too and as I look back I can't think of any better way to start a day as I start this one.
Delene this was also a hymn sung on mornings at my school. Also one of my favorites😊
@@KH-gg9jm It is a wonderful start to the day. Such beautiful words.
My school too 🙏
Same here. Good old days
While reading Psalms 74 this song came to mind Yes I remember singing it at school assembly and Church and my AuntLin singing as I listened to her angelic voice oh what an awesome God we serve God is good
This hymn binds us all to His loving presence.
Praise God Jehovah for His help from ages past. Let the name Jehovah be glorified. Blessings glory and honour power might and dominion be unto thee my blessed Lord.
God was my God in the past, He is my God now and He will be my God forever in Jesus Christ Mighty Name.
“Forever in Jesus Christ” …thank you Betty Angel for putting that in there …
Yesss amennnn Our God forever till eternity
Amen and amen
In our church they only sing choruses led by a single guitar. What a joy this am when I was able to to listen to this wonderful hymn with congregational singing! Our God, our help in ages past is also our help today, He does not change and has not changed!
And will never change!
My faith is built on God from these olden days songs from my childhood days and my upbringing.
My Father, my Father I praise Your holy name and I thank You for Your mighty outstretched arm upon my life. Thank You Jesus.
A mighty, victorious song to sing day and night until the day we see Him face to face, the King of king's and Lord of lord's! Amen! Come soon Lord.
Beautiful Hymn!
Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
That line is amazing
Yes.
Love it. Since 1977
This was also sung at the National Cathedral after 9/11.
This hymn was sung in the first class dining saloon during Sunday services on the R.M.S Titanic.
Simply delightful. Never get tired listening to this inspiring song.
HATS OFF TO THE ORGANIST! THE INTRO WAS LIT!
An evergreen hymn of FAITH HOPE and LOVE.
Thank you JESUS!
This song was sang in my bridal shower..my mom's choice. I now understand this song much more than then.
This song is very deep! It makes me smile at the storms of life
This reminds me of my school days, and a time when the world was a better place. The words are so powerful in these old hymns - the modern "worship" music is spineless compared to this power - This is so reverent to God.
My grandfather told me about this song how he used to sing this song in his time(1950's) and it's beautiful ❤️✨
It is amazing how a hymn comes to mind This one just sets the pace for the day today
I remember this hymn from my childhood days in church with my Mother such priceless memories and such a blessing to me to see and hear it again.. Loved it then many years ago and I just love it now
I too, mostly sung at funeral services
This was my late mum's best hymn
Bishopites sing this in the morning assembly at The Bishop's School, Pune
💯💯
My dad died 50yrs ago this hymn was sung was beautiful then and now,,
God be with you always
Bless you dear.
Beautiful....God is our refuge and our strength..forever!
This evergreen hymn taken from Psalm 90 is for all ages. It shows God's greatness, goodness, majesty and wisdom! Praise the Lord Who is Mighty, everlasting and all- sufficient!!
I still find this song so moving, memories of childhood though I have been an agnostic for many years.
He's my great anchor and hold.
I love this piece
This song has soooooo much meaning during this "blast" of COVID-19, when everything looks insecure. David couldn't have said it better-->"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Psalm.46:1). Our heavenly Father is our current Source, and will "supply all your need, according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). This is how His Son Jesus displayed perfect trust in the divine will. And it sustained Him through all the torture He endured.
Amen CJ well said! Very true. Our hope is in Jesus.
@@beaulahbhakre4504 Amen 🙏
Oh God, may your name be forever praise ....
The hymn always blessed me.Praise to God Almighty ever and ever Amen.
Amen
When Churchill met Roosevelt in Newfoundland for the first conference between them during the war, he ordered this to be played alongside Onward Christian Soldiers.
My school sang it at the beginning and end of every term, and it evokes old memories, pictures and emotions
I like it especially during Evening Prayer as I journey through to Priesthood. ..... It's a beautiful hymn
Looked this hymn up after reading that FDR and Winston Churchill requested this song for their church service after creating the Atlantic Charter.👍
Was that a good thing?
@@marywickstrom9917 : Good or bad no matter, just curious.🥴
I am very much inspired that God will always help us.
Beautiful Hymn.
My mother used to sing this Hymn every night before our night Prayers. Thanked God for His goodness.
🙏🙏🙏
Thank God for Christian mothers !
Beautiful hymn, I love it.
Same here, very uplifting. :)
God is good so assuring a song
How this hymn brings back all the sweet memories of childhood and assurance that the new year will be a God guided. 🙏

O God, you are surely our help.
This hymn comes to mind often ,it really does praise the LORD so well. and start a day off well too.
A great hymn of confidence in the power of god
Very appropriate hymn to remind us of our eternal God (Ps 90:2) and our own mortality (Ps 90:10). "So teach us to number our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom" (v. 12).

We have now reached the horrendous milestone of 100,000 British coronavirus dead (four times as many in America, and loads more across the globe); God our help in past, present and future ages will bring us through it---there are brighter times to come.
God jesus and the holy spirit what more do you need ..
A beautiful prayer to God; the Three in One!!!❤❤❤
Glory be to God all mighty 🙏.
Love this hymn 🙏
Amen and Amen
This hymn has helped me in ages past. It's my restoration hymn
Esther Hart a woman who survived the tragedy of the Titanic mentions this song in a letter that later sold at auction for 150,000 in 2014. Btw the letter was written on the night iceberg struck. It is the last know letter written on the titanic
Thank you and God bless, from Sri Lanka
This was one of the hymns sang on the Titanic during its church service on Sunday, April 14...
My birthday, how about that-one of my favorite hymns(this)had actually been sung on my birthday. Yes, I am aware that my birthday falls on or over the sinking of the Titanic, exactly 57 years before I was born I just figured out(1912-1969).
This song was one of my Teachers favourite in primary school Mr Lalander he love's it
Oh man! Founders Day!
Every national church event should have this great hymn of the church. Amen
Hebrews 4:16
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Thank you So much, The Almighty GOD Bless!!!
This was the hymn of my school. We used to sing this.
There is no argument that Jesus came to save me.
I love this hymn
Psalm 90:1-6 KJV
Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
We ALL LIKE THIS HYM.
What i really remember is im winning their lost battle.
Indeed he is our help in ages to come
As for me I will ever put The Lord God of Everlasting before my face all the days of my life because he causeth salvation to rest upon this vile sinners heart and overthrew the devices of Lucifer for my soul. I will continue all the days of my life if God allows it to sing of his wondrous grace of that new and living way through his son Christ Jesus the Lord that I may enter the holy of holies to put forth my petitions before the Eternal Everlasting Righteous God that if it's his will he heareth me and I pray my life shall glorify God in thought word and deed and with the KJV scriptures opened before me I pray for understanding wisdom and knowledge to know how to please my Lord of Lords and King of Kings when his eyes are upon me as an embassador for Christ My Everlasting God in Jesus christ name I ask these things for your glory even so amen.
Wonder full him fill my spirit with love and ashorance ❤
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 defense 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 guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home.
Blesses my soul
