115. Abide with us, our Saviour

1 Abide with us, our Saviour,
Nor let Thy mercy cease;
From Satan's might defend us,
And grant our souls release.

2 Abide with us, our Saviour,
Sustain us by Thy Word,
That we with all Thy people
To life may be restored.

3 Abide with us, our Saviour,
Thou Light of endless light,
That we may never wander
Astray in error's night.

4 Abide, and let Thy blessing,
Lord, rest on us alway;
All needful strength and graces
Grant Thou us day by day.

5 Abide, our Strength and Refuge,
With us till life's last hour,
That world and Satan never
Our weakness overpower.

6 Abide, O faithful Saviour,
Among us with Thy love;
Grant steadfastness, and help us
To reach our home above.
