<p>&#8220;Abide with us, the day is waning,&#8221;<br>
Thus prayed the two while on the way;<br>
We read that Thou, O Lord, remaining,<br>
Didst all their doubts and fears allay.<br>
Incline Thine ear, Thou King of Grace,<br>
When, praying thus, we seek Thy face.</p>
<p>At eventide, Thy Spirit sending,<br>
Help us, O Lord, our watch to keep,<br>
In prayer devout before Thee bending,<br>
Ere we our eyelids close in sleep,<br>
Confessing sin in deed and word<br>
With hope of mercy from the Lord.</p>
<p>Abide with us; with heav&#8217;nly gladness<br>
Illumine, Lord, our darkest day;<br>
And when we weep in pain and sadness,<br>
Be Thou our Solace, Strength and Stay.<br>
Tell of Thy woe, Thy victory won,<br>
When Thou didst pray: &#8220;Thy will be done.&#8221;</p>
<p>Abide with us, O Savior tender,<br>
That bitter day when life shall end,<br>
When to the grave we must surrender,<br>
And fear and pain our hearts shall rend.<br>
The shield of faith do Thou bestow<br>
When trembling we must meet the foe.</p>
<p>When earthly help no more availeth,<br>
To sup with us Thou wilt be nigh;<br>
Thou givest strength that never faileth,<br>
In Thee we grave and death defy.<br>
While earth is fading from our sight,<br>
Our eyes behold the realms of light.</p>
