Elton John – Abide With Me

Written by William Monk and H.F. Lyte

Abide with me, fast forth the eventide

The darkness deepens, Lord abide with me

When other helpers fail and comforts flee

Help of the helpless, 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, that victory

I triumph still if Thou abide with me

Hold Thou thy cross before my closed 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

In life, in death, O Lord abide with me
