39. Saviour, Abide with Us

1 Saviour, abide with us!
The day is now far gone;
We would obtain a blessing thus
By coming to Thy throne.

2 We have not reached that land,
That happy land, as yet,
Where holy angels round Thee stand,
Whose sun can never set.

3 Our sun is sinking now;
Our day is almost o’er;
O Sun of Righteousness, do Thou
Shine on us evermore.
