Verse 1 Abide with me Fast falls the eventide And the darkness Deepens Lord with me Abide and when other helpers When they fail and all my comforts flee You are help of the helpless Oh abide abide with me
Verse 2 I need Thy presence Ev'ry passing hour What but Thy grace can foil The tempter's pow'r Who like Thyself My guide and stay can be Through cloud and sunshine Lord abide with me
Verse 3 I fear no foe With Thee at hand to bless Ills have no weight And tears no bitterness Where is death's sting Where grace thy victory I triumph still If Thou abide with me
Chorus 1 Abide with me be here with me Lord Abide with me oh Lord Abide with me be here with me Lord Abide with me oh Lord
Verse 4 Hold Thou Thy cross Before my closing eyes Shine through the gloom Lord 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
Chorus 2 Abide with me be here with me Lord Abide with me oh Lord Abide with me be here with me Lord Abide with me oh Lord
