Your reign shall never, like earth's proud empires, fade and fall. Your reign endures, and grows forever till all your creatures heed your call.

What but your grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like yourself my guide and strength can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with you at hand to bless; Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness; Where is death's sting? where, grave, your victory? I triumph still if you abide with me. 5 Hold now your 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 Christ, abide with me.
