Abide "With Me. Pat's Pick, page 96.
j piati.
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, oh, abide with me. 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; 0 Thou, who changest not, abide with me. 1 need thy presence every passing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thro' cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus. Pat's Pick, page 103.
Stand up! stand up for Jesus! Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high His royal banner, It must not suffer loss; From victory unto victory His army He shall lead. Till every foe is vanquished, And Christ is Lord indeed.
