- Before the mountains were born
Or You gave birth to the earth and the world,
Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. - For a thousand years in Your sight
Are like yesterday when it passes by,
Or like a watch in the night. - So teach us to number our days,
That we may present to You a heart of wisdom. - May the kindness of the Lord our God be upon us;
And confirm for us the work of our hands;
Yes, confirm the work of our hands.
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
