Abide with me

- 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, O 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, O 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.
- Reveal Thyself 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. ......
