Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless; ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness; where is death's dark sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if thou abide with me. 5 Hold thou thy 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 God, abide with me.

Your hand, in sight of all my foes, shall still my table spread; my cup with blessings overflows, your oil anoints my head. 3 The sure provisions of my God attend me all my days; O may your house be my abode, and all my work be praise. There would I find a settled rest, while others go and come; no more a stranger or a guest, but like a child at home. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: RESIGNATION
