Abide with me from morn till eve,

Verse 4
For the sad and sinful If some poor wandering child of thine have
Shall his grace abound, spurned today the voice divine. Now, Lord, the
For the faint and feeble Perfect strength be gracious work begin;
found. Let him no more lie down in sin. 4/6

Chorus Verse 5
Onward, then, and fear not, Children of the day! Watch by the sick; enrich the poor

Never pass away! 3/4 Be every mourner's sleep tonight
Like infant's slumbers, pure and light. 5/6

He will never fail us, Verse 6
He will not forsake; His eternal covenant Come near and bless us when we wake Ere

Resting on his promise, What have we to fear? We lose ourselves in heaven above. 6/6
