Abide, O Dearest Jesus
Abide, O dearest Jesus, Among us with Thy grace
Joshua Stegmann · tr. August Crull · 7.6.7.6
1.Abide, O dearest Jesus,
Among us with Thy grace,
That Satan may not harm us,
Nor we to sin give place.
2.Abide, O dear Redeemer,
Among us with Thy Word,
And thus now and hereafter
True peace and joy afford.
3.Abide with heav'nly brightness
Among us, precious Light;
Thy truth direct, and keep us
From error's gloomy night.
4.Abide with richest blessings
Among us, bounteous Lord;
Let us in grace and wisdom
Grow daily through Thy Word.
5.Abide with Thy protection
Among us, Lord, our Strength,
Lest world and Satan fell us
And overcome at length.
