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, abide with me.

Thou on my head in early youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

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, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, tears loss their bitterness.
Where is thy sting death? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, 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.
