Abide With Me; Fast Falls The Eventide;
The Darkness Deepens; Lord, With Me Abide;
When Other Helpers Fail And Comforts Flee,
Help Of The Helpless, Oh, Abide With Me.
Swift To Its Close Ebbs Out Life’s Little Day;
Earth’s Joys Grow Dim, Its Glories Pass Away;
Change And Decay In All Around I See—
O Thou Who Changest Not, Abide With Me.
I Need Thy Presence Every Passing Hour;
What But Thy Grace Can Foil The Tempter’s Power?
Who, Like Thyself, My Guide And Stay Can Be?
Through Cloud And Sunshine, Lord, Abide With Me.
I Fear No Foe, With Thee At Hand To Bless;
Ills Have No Weight, And Tears No Bitterness;
Where Is Death’s Sting? Where, Grave, Thy Victory?
I Triumph Still, If Thou Abide With Me.
Hold Thou Thy Cross Before My Closing Eyes;
Shine Through The Gloom And Point Me To The Skies;
Heaven’s Morning Breaks, And Earth’s Vain Shadows Flee;
In Life, In Death, O Lord, Abide With Me.
