Lord Jesus Christ, Abide With Us

Lord Jesus Christ, abide with us,
Now that the sun has run its course;
Let hope not be obscured by night,
But may faith’s darkness be as light.

Lord Jesus Christ, grant us your peace,
And when the trials of earth shall cease,
Grant us the morning light of grace,
The radiant splendor of your face.

Immortal, Holy, Threefold Light,
Yours be the kingdom, pow’r, and might;
All glory be eternally
To you, life-giving Trinity!

Tune: Old 100th L.M.
Music: Louis Bourgeois, 1551
Text: Saint Joseph’s Abbey, 1967, 1968
