Abide With Me
Verse 1
Abide with me; fast falls the even tide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers, fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, abide with me.
Verse 2
Thou on my head, in early youth didst smile; And, though rebellious, and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, as I oft left Thee, On to the close Lord, abide with me.
Verse 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, abide with me.
Verse 4
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless, Ills have no weight, tears lose their bitterness
Where is thy sting death? Where grave thy Victory? I triumph still, abide with me.
Verse 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, Lord, abide with me.
In life, in death, Lord, abide with me.
Abide with me; fast falls the even tide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers, fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, abide with me.
Verse 2
Thou on my head, in early youth didst smile; And, though rebellious, and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, as I oft left Thee, On to the close Lord, abide with me.

Psalm 23 (I Am Not Alone)
Verse 1:
The Lord is my Shepherd, He goes before me
Defender behind me, I won't fear,
I'm filled with anointing, My cup's overflowing,
No weapon can harm me, I won't fear
Chorus:
Hallelujah, I am not alone
He's my Comfort, Always holds me close
Verse 2:
He always guides me, Through mountains and valleys
His joy is refreshing, Restores my soul
Mercy and goodness, Give me assurance
That I'll see His glory, face to face
Bridge:
Your Spirit lives within me, So I will walk in Your peace
Your Spirit lives within me. My victory, My victory
The Lord is my Shepherd, He goes before me
Defender behind me, I won't fear,
I'm filled with anointing, My cup's overflowing,
No weapon can harm me, I won't fear
Chorus:
Hallelujah, I am not alone
He's my Comfort, Always holds me close

Your Spirit lives within me. My victory, My victory
In Christ Alone
Verse 1
In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light my strength my song
This Cornerstone this solid ground, Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love what depths of peace, When fears are stilled when strivings cease
My comforter my all in all, Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light my strength my song
This Cornerstone this solid ground, Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love what depths of peace, When fears are stilled when strivings cease
My comforter my all in all, Here in the love of Christ I stand
Verse 2
In Christ alone who took on flesh, Fullness of God in help - less Babe
This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones He came to save
'Til on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied
For ev'ry sin on Him was laid, Here in the death of Christ I live
In Christ alone who took on flesh, Fullness of God in help - less Babe
This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones He came to save
'Til on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied
For ev'ry sin on Him was laid, Here in the death of Christ I live
Verse 3
There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day, Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in vic - tory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine, Bought with the precious blood of Christ
There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day, Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in vic - tory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine, Bought with the precious blood of Christ
Verse 4
No guilt in life no fear in death, This is the pow'r of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny
No pow'r of hell no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand
'Til He returns or calls me home, Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand
No guilt in life no fear in death, This is the pow'r of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny
No pow'r of hell no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand
'Til He returns or calls me home, Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand
