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.

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.

Come not in terrors, as the King of kings;
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings:
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, thus 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, oh, abide with me.

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.

Best hymn ever!
Cool!!

The hymn reassures hope in the place of hopelessness . It reassures me of hope beyond my unaccomplished desires, strength to bear the grief of my late Dear wife. I feel God's presence within.
Listen to the Call of my heart.

This piece is highly inspirational and connects my spirit, soul and body quicker than any other hymns. Except You abide with us, we cannot run successfully...

i find it hard to sing this song as much as the meaning ministers to my soul. It was sang at my mum's burial and it was too emotional for me. I pray God heals my heart totally.
The words of this Hymn is so apt in conveying the longing of a person's heart to God.

So so inspiring; Lord Jesus, Lover of my soul abide with me Lord abide with me till the end.
