1. 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!
2. Swift to it’s close ebbs out life’s little day; Earth’s joys grow dim; it’s glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O thou, who changest not, abide with me!
3. 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!
