Abide with Me

Abide with me fast falls the even tide The darkness steepens Lord with me abide When other helpers fails and comforts flee Help of helpless, Lord abide with me Abide, abide, abide with me Lord, I need the every hour O come abide with me I need thy presence every passing hour What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power Who like thy self, my guide and stake in me Through cloud and tempest, Lord abide with me Abide, abide, abide with me Lord, I need thee every hour O come abide with me By fear no foe with thee I am to bless Ills have no weight and tears, no bitterness Where is death's sting? Where grave thy victory? Our triumph still if thou abide with me Our triumph still if thou abide with me Abide, abide, abide with me Lord, I need thee every hour O come, abide with me Abide, abide, abide with me Lord, I need thee every hour O come, abide with me O thou thy cross before my closing eyes Shine through the night and point me to the skies Heaven's morning breaks and Earth dark shadow flee In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me
