Abide With Me Lyrics

Abide With Me lyrics

A-bide 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 joys grow dim, its glories pass away

Change and
decay in all around I see

Oh thou who changest not, abide with me



I need thy presence every 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, Oh abide with me



Oh thou thy cross
before my closing eyes

Shine through the gloom, and point me to the
skies

Heav'ns morning breaks, and earth's reign shadows flee

In
life and death, Oh Lord, abide with me



In life and death, Oh Lord,
abide with me
