Hayley Westenra - Abide With Me lyrics

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 it's close ebbs
Out life's little day
Earth's joys grow dim it's glories pass away

Change and decay in all around I see
O Thou who changest not, abide with me

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
