abide with me fast falls the eventide

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.

I need Thy presence every passing hour.
What but Thy grace can foil the tempters power
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be
Through cloud and sunshine Lord abide with me.

I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is deaths sting
Where grave thy victory
I triumph still if Thou abide with me.
