Abide With Me

Written by William Henry Monk's

	  		
Intro: C 

G         Am  Em   Dm        G   C  
A-bide with me, fast falls the eventide  
C   Dm  C    F  C     G          Am D G  
The darkness deepens, Lord, with me abide  
C    E     Am Em    Dm        A        Dm  
When other helpers  fail, and comforts flee  
G    C  G   C   E     Am  Dm  C    G    C  
help of the helpless, oh,   abide with me  
C G        Am Em    Dm    G       C  
I need thy presence every passing hour  
C    Dm  C   F     C   G        Am  D     G  
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's pow'r  
C   E       Am    Em Dm        A        Dm  
Who like Thyself  my guide and stay can be  
G       C     G   C  E      Am  Dm  C  G    C  
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me   
C     G       Am    Em   Dm         G      C  
Swift to it's close ebbs out life's little day  
C       Dm   C    F    C    G       Am   D G  
Earth's joys grow dim, it's glories pass away  
C      E     Am  Em  Dm  A        Dm  
Change and decay in  all around I see 
G C    G   C   E    Am   Dm C    G    C  
O Thou who changest not,  abide with me  
C   G       Am     Em Dm     G       C  
Not a brief glance I  beg, a passing word  
C   Dm C    F        C    G   Am D       G  
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord  
C E       Am Em Dm       A        Dm  
Familiar, condescending, patient, free  
G    C   G  C E      Am  Dm C    G    C  
Come not to sojourn, but   abide with me  
C    G   Am Em      Dm     G       C  
Come not in terror, as the King of kings  
C   Dm   C   F     C    G       Am  D   G  
But kind and good, with healing in  thy wings  
C     E       Am    Em Dm        A     Dm  
Tears for all woes, a  heart for every plea  
G     C      G  C  E     Am   Dm C    G    C  
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me  
C    G  Am Em       Dm   G           C  
Thou on my head in every youth didst smile  
C   d      C F  C     G      a     D   G  
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile  
C    E    Am  Em       Dm     A      Dm  
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee  
G  C  G   C      E Am    Dm  C    G    C  
On to the close, O Lord,  abide with me  
C G       Am   Em   Dm      G       C  
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless  
C    Dm   C  F       C   G        Am D  G  
I have no weight, and tears no bitterness  
C     E          Am     Em     Dm         A  Dm  
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory  
G C  G    C      E  Am   Dm  C    G    C  
I triumph still, if thou a - bide with me  
C    G        Am    Em Dm      G       C  
Hold thou thy cross be-fore my closing eyes  
C     Dm      C   F      C   G     Am    D   G  
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies  
C        E       Am      Em  Dm           A       Dm  
Heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee  
G  C     G  C      E Am    Dm  C    G    C  
In life, in death, O Lord,   abide with me
