Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear, It is not night if Thou be near; O may no earthborn cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes.
Verse 2
When the soft dews of kindly sleep My wearied eyelids gently steep, Be my last tho't, how sweet to rest Forever on my Savior's breast.
Verse 3
Abide with me from morn till eve, For without Thee I cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without Thee I dare not die.
Verse 4
Come near and bless us when we wake, Ere thru the world our way we take; Till, in the ocean of Thy love, We lose ourselves in heav'n above.
