hymn - abide in me oh lord lyrics

Loading...

abide in me, o lord, and i in thee,
from this good hour, oh, leave me nevermore;
then shall the discord cease, the wound be healed,
the lifelong bleeding of the soul be o’er.

abide in me; o’ershadow by thy love
each half formed purpose and dark thought of sin;
quench ere it rise each selfish, low desire,
and keep my soul as thine, calm and divine.

as some rare perfume in a vase of clay,
pervades it with a fragrance not its own,
so, when thou dwellest in a mortal soul,
all heaven’s own sweetness seems around it thrown.

abide in me; there have been moments blest
when i have heard thy voice and felt thy power;
then evil lost its grasp; and p-ssion, hushed,
owned the divine enchantment of the hour.

these were but seasons beautiful and rare;
abide in me, and they shall ever be;
fulfill at once thy precept and my prayer,
come, and abide in me, and i in thee.
