<p>Abide in me, O Lord, and I in Thee,<br>
From this good hour, oh, leave me nevermore;<br>
Then shall the discord cease, the wound be healed,<br>
The lifelong bleeding of the soul be o&#8217;er.</p>
<p>Abide in me; o&#8217;ershadow by Thy love<br>
Each half formed purpose and dark thought of sin;<br>
Quench ere it rise each selfish, low desire,<br>
And keep my soul as Thine, calm and divine.</p>
<p>As some rare perfume in a vase of clay,<br>
Pervades it with a fragrance not its own,<br>
So, when Thou dwellest in a mortal soul,<br>
All heaven&#8217;s own sweetness seems around it thrown.</p>
<p>Abide in me; there have been moments blest<br>
When I have heard Thy voice and felt Thy power;<br>
Then evil lost its grasp; and passion, hushed,<br>
Owned the divine enchantment of the hour.</p>
<p>These were but seasons beautiful and rare;<br>
Abide in me, and they shall ever be;<br>
Fulfill at once Thy precept and my prayer,<br>
Come, and abide in me, and I in Thee.</p>
