Hayley Westenra - Abide with me |
|
Abide with me; |
|
Fast falls the eventide; |
|
The darkness deepens; |
|
O 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 changest not, 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. |
|
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. |
