Abide with me

Fast falls the eventide

The darkness deepens

Lord with me abide

When other helpers fail and comforts flee

Help of the helpless

O 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 cloud and sunshine

O abide with me

Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes

Shine through 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
