Abide with us, our Savior,

Sustain us by thy Word;

That we with all thy people

To life may be restored.

 

How kind, O loving Savior

To come from heav'n above,

From sin and evil save us,

And keep us in thy love.

 

When Christmas morn is dawning

In faith I would repair

Unto the lowly manger;

My Savior lieth there.

 

We need thee, blessed Jesus,

To be our dearest friend.

Your love will guard and guide us

And keep us to life's end.
