Abide with me

Author: Rev. H. F. Lyte Hymnal: WV1884 #16 (1884) First Line: Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide, The darkness deepens--Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me! 2. Swift to its close ebbs out of life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O thou who changest not abide with me! 3. I need thy presence ev'ry passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r? Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thro' cloud and sunshine, Lord, 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 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 Lord, abide with me! Tune Title: [Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide]

Coronation

[Chorus] 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign, Increase my courage, Lord; I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by thy word. [Chorus]

Cast thy bread upon the waters

Hymnal: WV1884 #75 (1884) Lyrics: 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have but scant supply, Angel eyes will watch around it; You shall find it by and by; He who in his righteous balance Doth each human action weight Will your sacrifice remember, Will your loving deed repay. 2 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Poor and weary, worn with care,-- Often sitting in the shadow,-- Have you not a crumb to spare? Can you not to those around you Sing some little song of hope, As you look with longing vision Through faith's mighty telescope? 3 Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have abundant store; It may float on many a billow, It may strand on many a shore; You may think it lost forever, But, as sure as God is true, In this life or in the other, It will yet return to you.
