- Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God. - For a thousand years in your sight
are but as yesterday when it is past,
or as a watch in the night. - So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom. - Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
and establish the work of our hands upon us;
yes, establish the work of our hands!
Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
