Abide with me
Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: TBP1997 #794 (1997) Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide (Reste avec moi! C'est l'heure le jour baisse) 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, oh 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, oh 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;
heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

1 Reste avec moi! C'est l'heure où le jour baisse;
l'ombre grandit, Seigneur, attarde-toi!
Tous les appuis manquent à ma faiblesse;
force du faible, O Christ, reste avec moi!
2 Le flot des jours rapidement s'écoule
leur gloire est vaine et leur bonheur déçoit;
tout change et meurt, tout chancelle et s'écroule;
toi qui ne changes point, reste avec moi!
3 J'ose implorer plus qu'un regard qui passe;
viens, comme à tes disciples, autrefois,
plein de douceur, de tendresse et de grâce,
et pour toujours, Seigneur, reste avec moi!
4 Heure après heure, il me faut ta présence,
le tentateur ne redoute que toi.
Qui donc prendrait contre lui ma défense?
Dans l'ombre ou la clarté, reste avec moi!

God is here! as we your people meet

meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of the Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font and pulpit,
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold;
here as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us, as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Sovereign God of Church and Kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive;
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you; we believe. Topics: Anniversaries / Dedication of Buildings; Church; Jesus Christ Servant; Processionals; Servant / Service; Worship Scripture: Matthew 10:25 Languages: English Tune Title: BLAENWERN

in wisdom guide, with faith and freedom dower,
be ours a nation evermore that no oppression blights,
where justice rules from shore to shore,
from lakes to northern lights.
May love alone for wrong atone;
Lord of the lands, make Canada thine own.
Lord of the lands, make Canada thine own.
