Abide With Me Songtext / Lyric

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, oh, abide with me.






Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day

Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away

Change and decay in all around I see

O Thou who changest not, abide with me.



Hold Thou Thy Cross before my closing eyes

Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies

Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee

In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
