1 Abide in grace, Lord Jesus,
Among us constantly,
Lest Satan’s art deceive us
And gain the victory.
2 Abide, Lord, with the story
Of Thy redeeming love;
May we the Gospel’s glory
And saving virtue prove.
3 Abide, our pathway brighten
With Thy celestial ray;
Blest Light, our souls enlighten,
Show us the truth, the way.
4 Abide with us in blessing,
Lord of the earth and sky;
Rich grace and strength possessing,
Do Thou our need supply.
5 Abide, our only Safely,
Thy people’s sure Defense;
No power can withstand Thee,
Divine Omnipotence.
6 Abide among us ever,
Lord, with Thy faithfulness;
Jesus, forsake us never,
Help us in all distress.
