Abide with Me
Author: Henry Francis Lyte Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,668 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:29 First Line: Abide with me: fast falls the eventide 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, O 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 Lord who changes not, abide with me.
3 I need your presence every passing hour.
What but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with you at hand to bless,
though ills have weight, and tears their bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still, if you abide with me.
5 Hold now your Word 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.

your chosen pilgrim flock
with manna in the wilderness,
with water from the rock.
2 Hungry and thirsty, faint and weak,
as you when here below,
our souls the joys celestial seek
which from thy sorrows flow.

but by that Word of grace,
in strength of which we travel on
to our abiding place.
4 Be known to us in breaking bread,
but do not then depart;
Savior, abide with us, and spread
your table in our heart.
5 There sup with us in love divine;
your body and your blood,
that living bread, that heav'nly wine,
be our immortal food.

Tarry with me, O my Savior
Author: Anon. Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 231 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:29 Lyrics: 1 Tarry with me, O my Saviour,
For the day is passing by;
See, the shades of evening gather,
And the night is drawing nigh.
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.
3 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows,
Paler now, the glowing west,
Swift the night of death advances,
Shall it be the night of rest?
4 Feeble, trembling, fainting, dying,
Lord, I cast myself on thee;
Tarry with me through the darkness,
While I sleep, still watch by me. Topics: Youth and Age; Christ's Presence in the Evening of Life

O Jesus, I have promised
Author: John Ernest Bode (1816-1874) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 617 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:15 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and always near me,
my master and my friend:
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
not wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 Oh, let me feel you near me:
the world is ever near;
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear;
my foes are ever near me,
around me, and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer,
and shield my soul from sin.
3 Oh, let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
Oh, speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
true guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too;
and, Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end:
now give me grace to follow,
my master and my friend. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Confirmation; Conflict; Discipleship Used With Tune: THORNBURY
