Abide with me

Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,699 hymnals Scripture: Romans 5:6 First Line: Abide with me; fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 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 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. 3 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, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless; ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if thou abide with me. 5 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.
