Our Faith, His Abiding

I will abide, tho' night is drawing nigh,

Tho' cloud and darkness now obscure the sky;

I know thy sorrows, see thy falling tear;

Give me thine hand, for I am ever near.

Tho' earthly joys are fleeing fast away,

Lean upon Me, and I will be thy stay;

My grace is all sufficient, rich and free.

Oh, hast thy faith! I will abide with thee.

Mine eye is watching o'er the troubled child;

My arms shall guide thee, though this path be wild;

Mid storm and tempests to My bosom flee;

Have childlike faith; I will abide with thee.

A little while and it will be light;

Thy faith shall be exchanged for perfect sight;

No fears to vex thee, nothing to molest,

For thou shalt be with Me in perfect rest.

When friends forsake thee, I will be thy friend;

My love shall keep thee until life shall end.

And when Heav'n's golden gate thine eye shall see,

I will eternally abide with thee.
