Hymnal: The Christian hymnary #234 (1891) Lyrics: 1 Abide with us; the evening shades
Begin already to prevail;
And, as the lingering twilight fades,
Dark clouds along the horizon sail.
2 Abide with us; and still unfold
Thy sacred, thy prophetic lore;
What wondrous things of Jesus told!
Stranger, we thirst, we pant for more.
3 Abide with us; our hearts are cold;
We thought that Israel he'd restore;
But sweet the truths thy lips have told,
And, stranger, we complain no more.
4 Abide with us; amazed they cry,
As, suddenly, while breaking bread,
Their own lost Jesus meets their eye,
With radiant glory on his head. Languages: English
