Mormon Tabernacle Choir — Abide With Me, 'Tis Eventide lyrics

Lyrics

Abide with me ‘tis eventide
The day has past and gone
The shadows of the evening fall;
The night is coming on.
Within my heart a welcome guest,
Within my home abide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
Abide with me; 'tis eventide.
Thy walk today with me Has made my heart
within me burn,
As I communed with thee.
Thy earnest words
have filled my soul
And kept me near thy side.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
Abide with me; 'tis eventide,
And lone will be the night
If I cannot commune with thee,
Nor find in thee my light.
The darkness of the world, I fear,
Would in my home abide.
O Saviour, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Saviour, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
