1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide, The darkness deepens Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail. [bad word] flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!
2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joy's grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me!
