Abide with me; 'tis eventide
The day is past and gone;
The shadows of the evening fall;
The night is coming on
Within my heart a welcome guest,
Within my home abide

[Chorus]

O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide

Abide with me; 'tis eventide
Thy walk today with me
Has made my heart within me burn,
As I communed with thee
Thy earnest words have filled my soul
And kept me near thy side

Abide with me; 'tis eventide,
And lone will be the night
If I cannot commune with thee
Nor find in thee my light
The darkness of the world, I fear,
Would in my home abide
