Abide with Me; Fast Falls the Eventide
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #807 (1995) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Death of Believers Lyrics: 1 Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Lord who changes not, abide with me.
3 I need your presence every passing hour.
What but your grace can foil the tempter's pow'r?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless,
though ills have weight, and tears their bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still, if you abide with me.
5 Hold now your cross before my closing eyes.
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heav'n's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
Scripture: Exodus 33:14-15 Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE
Abide with Me; Fast Falls the Eventide
My Faith Looks Trustingly
Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #705 (1995) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: Death of Believers Lyrics: 1 My faith looks trustingly,
to Christ of Calvary,
my Savior true!
Lord, hear me while I pray;
take all my guilt away.
strengthen in ev'ry way
my love for you!
2 May your rich grace impart
strength to my fainting heart,
my zeal inspire;
as you have died for me,
my love, adoringly,
pure, warm and changeless be,
a living fire!
3 While life’s dark maze I tread
and griefs around me spread,
O, be my guide;
make darkness turn to day,
wipe sorrow’s tears away,
nor let me ever stray
from you aside.
4 When ends life’s transient dream,
when death’s cold, sullen stream
rolls over me,
blessed Savior, then, in love
fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
redeemed and free! Scripture: Romans 1:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET

Rest from your loved employ:
the battle fought, the victory won,
enter your Master's joy.

labor and sorrow cease;
and life's long warfare closed at last,
your soul is found in peace.
3 Rest from your labor, rest,
soul of the just, set free;
blessed by your memory,
and blessed your bright example be.
4 Now, toil and conflict o'er,
go, take with saints your place;
but go as each has gone before,
a sinner saved by grace.
5 Soldier of Christ, well done!
Praise be your new employ,
and, while eternal ages run,
rest in your Savior's joy. Scripture: Matthew 25:21 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MICHAEL
