10, 10 10. Abide with me.

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, O abide with me!

Swift to its close ebbs out 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!

I need thy presence every passing hour: What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me!

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!

Reveal thyself 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 and death, O Lord, abide with me!
