1. Abide with me; ’tis eventide!The day is past and gone;The shadows of the evening fall;The night is coming on!Within my heart a welcome guest,Within my home abide;
O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide!O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide.
2. Abide with me; ’tis eventide!Thy walk today with meHas made my heart within me burn,As I communed with thee.Thy earnest words have filled my soulAnd kept me near thy side;
O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide!O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide.
3. Abide with me; ’tis eventide!And lone will be the night,If I cannot commune with thee,Nor find in thee my light.The darkness of the world, I fear,Would in my home abide;
O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide!O Savior, stay this night with me;Behold, ’tis eventide.
