Hymnal: The Morning Star #25 (1877) Scripture: Luke 24:29 First Line: Tarry with me, oh, my Savior Refrain First Line: Tarry with me, blessed Jesus Lyrics: 1 Tarry with me, oh, my Savior,
For the day is passing by;
See! the shades of evening gather,
And the night is drawing nigh.
Chorus:
Tarry with me, blessed Jesus,
Leave me not till morning light;
For I'm lonely here without thee,
Tarry with me thro' the night.
2 Many friends were gathered round me,
In the bright days of the past;
But the grave has closed above them,
And I linger here at last. [Chorus]
3 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows,
Paler now the glowing west;
Swift the night of death advances;
Shall it be the night of rest? [Chorus]
4 Tarry with me, oh, my Savior,
Lay my head upon Thy breast
Till the morning; then awake me,
Morning of eternal rest. [Chorus]
Tune Title: [Tarry with me, oh, my Savior]
Tarry with me
