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 - you never change, O Lord: abide with me! 3 I need your presence every passing hour: what but your grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like yourself my guide and strength can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me! 4 I have no fear with you at hand to bless; ills have no weight and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory? I triumph still if you abide with me. 5 Hold now your Word 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! Scripture: Luke 24:29 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

You brought me back from death and saved me from the grave. 2 Sing praises to the LORD, all those who know his name; for while his wrath is brief, his favor knows no end. Though tears flow for a night, the morning brings new joy. 3 I said, "I am so strong, I never shall be moved"; but you, LORD, shook my life-- my heart was in distress. I cried out for your help and pleaded for your grace: 4 "What good am I when dead, while lying in the grave? Can dust recount your love, the grave proclaim your praise? O hear me, gracious LORD, in mercy be my aid!" 5 My mourning you have turned to dancing and to joy; my sadness you dispelled as gladness filled my soul. And so I'll sing your praise, my God, through all my days. Scripture: Psalm 30 Used With Tune: BISHOP TUCKER
