Abide With Me

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.

Come not in terrors, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

Thou on my head in early youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

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, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

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, O Lord, abide with me.

Having loss my wife three years ago I am familiar with the feeling of the unfairness of the loss of a life partners. All I can say is that tells Romans8:28 tells us that:

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.


I believe that the Lord calls us home when or tasks are completed. So take comfort his work done he has been called home.

I want you to know how sorry I am for your loss. I am thinking of you and your family. Please accept my condolences

It is a good one. He had a personality and sense of humor that matched that big ol’ smile. Even when he wasn’t feeling his best, his droll sense of humor came shining through.

IIRC mylife would bring up songs or lyrics by the band RUSH. RIP mylife.

From “The Garden”, by RUSH:

The treasure of a life is a measure of love and respect
The way you live, the gifts that you give
In the fullness of time
It’s the only return that you expect

The future disappears into memory
With only a moment between
Forever dwells in that moment
Hope is what remains to be seen

It was me, too. Took me forever to wrestle those few out of that stupid Fotki. I look forward to seeing yours. I have many more, but got frustrated.

G’night, Sis.

He was always gracious and would invite me out to a private gun range near Dallas. We would have breakfast and go blast tennis balls into the air in the Trinity River. Loved our guns and music.

I broke down and I may do so again....:(
