Abide with me, O Master,
Throughout each weary day;
Shine through my eyes,
Let not my lips
Thy constant love betray
By uttered word of dark distrust;
But e’en through all my pain
Witness to Thy sustaining grace
Till I am healed again.
Then, as a prisoned bird set free,
Trills forth in joyous song,
This happy heart,
So may my life
In love Thy praise prolong.
