543 Thou Art God

Words: Isaac Watts, 1719

Music: Ruth Denson Edwards, 1959

Meter: Common Meter (8,6,8,6)

Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
Through endless years the same.

Under the shadow of Thy throne,
Still may we dwell secure,
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defense is sure.
