Author: John Keble Hymnal: The Celebration Hymnal #625 (1997) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear,
It is not night if Thou be near;
O may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes!
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last tho't, how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior's breast!
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.
4 Be near to bless me when I wake,
Ere thro' the world my way I take;
Abide with me till in Thy love
I lose myself in heav'n above. Topics: Walking with God Comfort and Encouragement Languages: English Tune Title: HURSLEY
