Abide With Me

Verse 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

Verse 2

I need Thy presence ev'ry passing hour
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s pow'r?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me

Chorus 1

Hlala nami, Hlala nami
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo
Hlala nami, Hlala nami Baba Wa - mi
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo

Verse 3

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 victo - ry?
I triumph still if Thou a - bide with me

Chorus 1

Hlala nami, Hlala nami
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo
Hlala nami, Hlala nami Baba Wa - mi
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo

Chorus 2

Hlala nami, Hlala nami
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo
Hlala nami, Hlala nami Baba Wami
Nkulunkulu njalo njalo
