Abide with Me "Eventide": Abide with me, fast falls the eventide

Monk, W. H.: Abide with Me "Eventide": Abide with me, fast falls the eventide - Lesley Garrett/Philip Ellis/Tiffin School Boys' Choir/London Voices

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

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 changes not 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

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
