2. Abide, O dearest Jesus

1 Abide, O dearest Jesus,
among us with Thy grace,
that Satan may not harm us,
nor we to sin give place.

2 Abide, O dear Redeemer,
Among us with Thy Word,
And thus now and hereafter
True peace and joy afford.

3 Abide with heavenly brightness
Among us, precious Light;
Thy truth direct, and keep us
From error's gloomy night.

4 Abide with richest blessings
Among us, bounteous Lord;
Let us in grace and wisdom
Grow daily through Thy Word.

5 Abide with Thy protection
Among us, Lord, our Strength,
Lest world and Satan fell us,
And overcome at length.

6 Abide, O faithful Saviour,
Among us with Thy love;
Grant steadfastness, and help us
To reach our home above.
