Текст песни Abide with me - Oslo Gospel Choir feat. Marte Lavik & Lars Andernach Fredriksen

1 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.

2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Lord who changes not, abide with me.

3 I need your presence every passing hour.
What but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.

4 I fear no foe with you at hand to bless,
Though ills have weight,
And tears their bitterness.
Where is death's sting?
Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still, if you abide with me.
