When You abide with me, I fear no foe
No bitter tears could ever shake my soul
Though arrows fly, though terror reigns
I will not fear for You abide with me
When You abide with me, my worries bow
You are my Comforter in every hour
Though sorrows rise like raging seas
I will not fear for You abide with me
Never forsaken, my strength will ever be
Found in the hope that's taken hold of me
Through light and darkness, my soul will sing
For You abide with me
When You abide with me, my heart finds rest
My life is hidden in Your righteousness
Hell has no pow'r, death has no sting
And I will not fear for You abide... with me!
Never forsaken, my strength will ever be
Found in the hope that's taken hold of me
Through light and darkness, my soul will sing
For You abide with me
When You abide with me, I overcome
Through flood and fire, the victory's won
I stand secure in joy and peace
Forever Yours, for You abide with me
Forever Yours, for You abide with me
