Christmas is upon us! Time to give God praise anew. I am approaching my 90th birthday. Anna Ruth, bless her, is already 90! It is fitting that we should be touched by this hymn, long a favorite of ours. It is by Isaac Watts. I chose these three verses.
Our 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.
Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guard while troubles last,
And our eternal home.
This is our testimony! God has been our help in the past, precious now, and gives us peace about the future. Our spirits are at rest. May all who love the Lord Jesus Christ relax in his eternal arms!
