Abide With Me Ever

Verse 1

Without Thee, my Saviour, I nothing can do; I strive, but I fail to be faithful and true; My strength is but weakness, and faint is my heart, Unless Thou art nigh me Thy grace to impart.

Chorus

Abide with me ever, O Saviour, abide, My Refuge in danger, in darkness, my Guide.

Verse 2

Without Thee, my Saviour, I struggle in vain; I sink ‘neath the wave with no arm to sustain; But when Thou art with me to strengthen my soul, I cling to the Rock though the waves o’er me roll.

Verse 3

Without Thee, my Saviour, I cannot prevail When foes of my soul with their weapons assail; But when Thou art with me to gird me with might, I march to the battle, and win in the fight.
