Every hour I need thee;

O bless me now, my Saviour,

I come to thee! Amen.

3. (5)

1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;

The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:

When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

2 Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;

Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away,
