Author: Thomas Olivers, 1724-1799 Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 465 hymnals Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
who reigns enthroned above,
ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love.
Almighty, great I Am!
by earth and heaven confessed,
I bow and bless the sacred name
forever blest.
2 The God of Abraham praise,
at whose supreme command
from earth I rise and seek
the joys at God's right hand.
I all on earth forsake,
its wisdom, fame and power,
and Lord my only portion make,
my shield and tower.
3 Though nature’s strength decay,
and earth and hell withstand,
to Canaan’s bounds I urge my way
at God's command;
the watery deep I pass
with Jesus in my view;
and through the howling wilderness
my way pursue.
4 The goodly land I see,
with peace and plenty blest,
a land of sacred liberty
and endless rest;
there milk and honey flow,
and oil and wine abound,
and trees of life forever grow,
with mercy crowned.
5 There dwells the Lord our King,
the Lord our Righteousness;
triumphant o’er the world and sin,
the Prince of Peace
On Zion’s sacred height
God's kingdom still maintains,
and glorious with the saints in light
forever reigns.
6 The whole triumphant host
give thanks to God on high;
"hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost"
they ever cry.
Hail, Abraham’s God, and mine!
I join the heavenly lays;
all might and majesty are thine,
and endless praise. Scripture: Genesis 15:1 Used With Tune: LEONI Text Sources: Hebrew, Yigdal

Abide with me
Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,754 hymnals Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases First Line: Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide (Reste avec moi! C'est l'heure le jour baisse) 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, oh 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 thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I 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?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight and tears no bitterness:
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes,
shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

1 Reste avec moi! C'est l'heure où le jour baisse;
l'ombre grandit, Seigneur, attarde-toi!
Tous les appuis manquent à ma faiblesse;
force du faible, O Christ, reste avec moi!
2 Le flot des jours rapidement s'écoule
leur gloire est vaine et leur bonheur déçoit;
tout change et meurt, tout chancelle et s'écroule;
toi qui ne changes point, reste avec moi!
3 J'ose implorer plus qu'un regard qui passe;
viens, comme à tes disciples, autrefois,
plein de douceur, de tendresse et de grâce,
et pour toujours, Seigneur, reste avec moi!
4 Heure après heure, il me faut ta présence,
le tentateur ne redoute que toi.
Qui donc prendrait contre lui ma défense?
Dans l'ombre ou la clarté, reste avec moi!
Scripture: Psalm 10:14 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
Abide with me
