Lyrics
Verse 1
Abide With Me. Fast falls the eventide.
The darkness deepens, Lord with me abide
When other helpers fail and comfort flee
help of the helpless O abide with me.
Verse 2
Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day.
Earth's joy grows dim its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Thou who changest not abide with me.
Verse 3
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.
Thru cloud and sunshine O abide with me.
Verse 4
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes.
Shine thru 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.
