Who like yourself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 4 I have no fear 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 Lord, abide with me.

O calm of hills above! There Jesus met you prayerfully: the silence of eternity, interpreted by love. 4 Drop your still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of your peace. 5 Breathe through the pulses of desire your coolness and your balm; let sense be numb, let flesh retire; speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still, all voice of calm. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Used With Tune: REST
