Abide with me fast fall 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 joy 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 clouds and sunshine O abide with me
I Fear no Foe, with Thee at
Hand to Bless
I will have no weight
and Tears no bitterness
Where is death’s sting,
were 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
Heavens morning breaks
and earth’s vain shadows tie
In Life and death O Lord abide with me
