Please return back to your first love, not to religion but to Jesus. Repent before it's too late! Don't be deceived by doctrines of demons or seduced to fleshly desires. Repent and SIN no more!
I am a backsliding Christian battling p*rn addiction, depression and brain fog. When the darkness deepens, I cry out to the Lord and He is there for me each time. Jesus is the Answer to every crisis in life
“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:10-11 (NKJV) I can find myself in your shoes brother. I pray that may in the Holy name of our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ may we be truly transformed to live for Him & do our Heavenly Father's will. Because it is written in His Holy Word that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away and all things have become new. II Cor. 5:17 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 (NKJV)
When I was at school I said to my music teacher that I didn't want to sing this hymn because it made me cry. He replied "So, you understand the song?" I still cry 50 years later.
Listening this song from a hospital cabin. My wife delivered our 2nd baby amid the coronavirus resurgence in Mizoram. Its amazing how the Lord abides with us. When befallen by difficulties and we thought our plans have failed, He makes us see that His ways are better than ours'. "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."
I am a Catholic, who was once lost after walking the wrong way. I fell into temptation and carried many mortal sins on my back. It left me with nothingness, no where to go to. My depression became very severe in March 2022 and I gave myself room to heal. It felt awkward as a Catholic since I once thought of leaving God for a hedonistic life. I was drowned in shame, a little bit like Judas, but in the end, a few unfortunate events in life caused me to seek refuge in God's arms. My God's arms, and no other. It was during my darkest hours, Lord Jesus appeared before me in my dreams. I cried. As I am writing this, I realised how wrong I was to leave in the first place, when my Lord had never forsaken me. I want to return to God. I want to rely on my Lord Jesus again. Everything that I have been through, I don't have the energy to carry that burden alone. I don't have the strength to carry my sins. I need Jesus to hold my hands and open my blind eyes so I can trust him again. I am coming back, Father. Your servant faithfully follows you from now on.
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
My mother passed away unexpectedly last night. I found this hymn today. Lord, please, show me mercy and give me peace. Abide with me, Lord, for your servant needs you!!
Kade Pierce: Perhaps it is Divine Providence that led you to find this masterpiece of a hymnal message now. I am sorry for your sadness here on Earth, but please rejoice that your mother is happily in the presence and care of Our Lord. 💜🕊️💜
The Lord will abide in life and in death. I too lost my Mum this year, 10 mths ago. I am still in pain when I think of the moments of her passing. But this hymn describes that when earth's pain ebbs away, Heaven's morning breaks. We say goodbye, but there is a grand welcoming ceremony over there.
If I die young, I hope there’s someone to hum this hymn over what’s left of me. May whoever reads this find health, wealth, peace, healing, love, solitude or any of your heart’s desires. You are loved beyond your capacity to rationalize or understand. I love you. Be at peace and in your nature.❤
I remember after a particularly rough day, after my husband died, I fell to my knees, crying and singing this song. Somehow it gave me the strength to get back up. Very grateful for that.
I'm encouraged that the Lord used the words of this hymn to help you carry on and I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Also, for the information of you and others who view this, there is another verse in this hymn that precedes the last verse and the lyrics thereof are as follows: I need Thy presence every passing hour. What but Thy grace can foil the Tempter's power? Who but Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. Plus, I can't say enough of how grateful I am to the Lord for His faithfulness in standing beside me and guiding me through this COVID 19 crisis with His light from above and I know that He will bring it to an end in His perfectly wise time and when He sees that it has accomplished the work for which He purposed it. To Him be praise for His glorious reign! 🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶♂️⛪

My favorite song. Forever. My mother would sing this as a lullaby & I would fall asleep in a few minutes.. I now know why she would sing it.. looking back.. I miss her. Life is difficult but God is always faithful.
January 1st of 2022 I was listening to this for comfort because of covid19. God is still God even when all is going bad, and this song reminded me of that
The loss of a parent is such a terrible pain, and I’m so sorry to hear you lost your wonderful mother. I’m a ‘mummy’s boy’ myself and mine is the most important person in the world to me. Rest assured, she is now at peace, and you will see her again when your time comes ❤️ I’m sure you’re making her proud
My wife passed away in May of 2020 and everyday without her has been an enormous struggle. Wife, best friend, confidante, soul mate, life partner, she was everything to me and she died so young and unexpectedly. Life is without joy, love and peace and I do not feel any sense of purpose or meaning. Listening to this hymn now made me weep bitterly. All the memories of my sweetheart came flooding back however the assurance that the Father is always with us and pointed to the sky and called her home when she closed her eyes on earth for the last time and opened them in Paradise for the first time, strengthens me. Thank you Father God in Yeshua Your Son's name Amen. Shalom 🙏
Sorry for your loss Vinil... May the Almighty continue to grant you fortitude to bear the burden of your dear wife's absence. And may she (continue to) find peace in the great beyond.
Awesome testimony! So glad that you now believe and understand 😊...Jesus is our only help in times of trouble, we all need Him in our lives and ask Him for help with a humble heart
This song makes me cry whenever I hear this. I feel like walking in the mountain with God. My life is full of pain but God is so faithful to help me, He never leave me. I feel humbled in the feet of Jesus as the answer of all questions in life.I'll gonna sing this song until I die.
I lost my father on Christmas Eve, save to say it will never be the same. However, he had faith in Jesus Christ and I know he is now experiencing bliss we here on Earth can’t even imagine. While I miss him terribly, I take refuge in the Lord and know I will see my father again. Praise be to Almighty God and His only begotten Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! If anyone else comes across this comment please know above anything else you are loved and cherished by a loving Father in Heaven. I know He abides with me every minute of every day. I love you Dad and can’t wait to see you again.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. It’s such a painful experience to lose a father, especially at that time of year. But you are right. He is in the arms of the Lord now, and I’m sure he is waiting patiently and comfortably to see you and your loved ones again ❤️
I don't know why this made me CRY, I was travelling in the college bus, and in my deep loneliness in my mind it made me realise the LOVE OF GOD. I pretended to yawn in the bus to do not let my friends know that I was CRYING. "Tears are prayers too, they travel to God when we couldn't speak" ~Psalms.
Charles Spurgeon called tears, "liquid prayer!" So beautiful when words are not sufficient, tears speak volumes! This has comforted my heart many times as the burdens I was carrying were lifted up to my LORD, who alone csn bear them for me! Be blessed!
So very sorry for your loss.. he's just gone for a while and then you both will be in eternity forever with our dear Savior. Imagine what great things your loved one is seeing right now! Come Lord Jesus! And thankfully we are comforted by Him now 😊🙏🙏🙏
I am a northern Englishman. Nothing, literally NOTHING has ever made me cry in my adult life. The history and delivery of this song is the first thing that has. More beautiful than I could ever put into words.
Another commenter posted "Tears are prayers, too, when we cannot find the words to speak." God bless you and praise to the One who also wept Himself, and knows the depths of all our sorrows.
The midnight my wife died, I sang Abide with me more than 40 times before daybreak. I wept all through the night and could not be consoled. My toughest experience in life.
I was holding my husband so close in my arms as he took his last breath,this song meant so much to us both,our wedding song and now included in his order of service in a few weeks time!⛪️ The loss I am feeling now is like a stab in my heart ♥️ but my belief that we will never say goodbye brings me great comfort. Until we meet again my beloved Micky,may God keep you safe in His arms until mine are wrapped around you once more. X❤️

(Edited, please see the new paragraph) I'm not religious, but this song means a lot to me. It's always played at the Challenge Cup Rugby League final, and my Grandad always used to stand and sing it, and now he cant due to Alzheimers, so I learned to sing it for him. So, unfortunately my grandfather passed away this year thanks to the Coronavirus. This song, though not this version, was played at his funeral. I sang with eyes filled with tears. I just want to say thanks to everyone who posted nice replies to this comment. Even if I dont share your faith, your kind words really touched me. Thank you. RIP Grandad.
My name is Karl.I just read your comment.This Song means a lot to me also.My Father passed in 2017.At the Funeral Home where my Father laid in his Coffin,the Song(without the words) was played.I could'nt figure out the name until I came on this TH-cam site.I found the name.Listening to this Song with the words is even more touching.I am always reminded of my Fathers passing whenever I listen to this Song.My Father had Dementia before his passing.I am soooo sorry about your Father Alzheimer disease.I pray he gets better.Have a Blessed Day
For every bruised soul stranded in Afghanistan, especially the ones held captive by their faith in Christ Jesus. We are praying and crying with you. Be strong!
I went to a Christian Missionary school (India). We would sing this in the morning assembly. This has so many memories. Also, this was Mahatma Gandhi's favourite hymn.
The comments of your favorite hymn on social media offers more value and encouragement than all the rest of social media combined. Thank you Lord for your army of faithful saints.
As Salamu Alaikum 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾 Thank you for recognising a beautiful truth. May The Almighty Lord shower us all with divine compassion, empathy and above all mutual understanding and respect! 🛐🕉️☪️✝️☯️☦️🕎🔯✡️☸️⚛️🕊️🏵️🌼🌻🌸🌹💮🌺❤️🌏🌎🌍🧿
I have told my husband that this is the hymn that I would like played at my memorial service …. I am not having a funeral, just a small family affair …. This became my favourite hymn when I was going through an extremely traumatic time in my life when I was in my late twenties. I’m nearing 70 now, & I still love this hymn. “In life, In death, oh Lord, Abide with me” ……..
Bless you, I hope you have lived the best possible life 😊 it sounds like you have! This is a brilliant song to choose, and I’m sure it will bring comfort to your family
To my great friend Steve K. who passed away suddenly in Toronto on April the 15th 2021.. Rest in Eternal Glory. This was one of his favorite hymns. May the good Lord embrace his family through this deeply tragic time..
2 years ago I suffered severe anxiety and depression so much that I wished and prayed for death at all time, and had suicidal thoughts as well. I heard this song playing over the radio, and that was the beginning of my life changing encounter with God. He abides with us always no matter the situation.
This has always been a favourite hymn of mine. It means more to me now since my dad passed away a couple of weeks ago. I am a full grown adult and I feel so helpless. It seemed like nothing could bring him down. Until a freak accident where he fell off his bike took him from us. I hurt when I dwell on it. I think that will keep happening for a while yet. But I find myself singing this song when I'm at my lowest and somehow I can pull through for one more minute, one more hour, one more day. I'm glad to know it. Thank you for posting.
The world is so full of hate and pain, how can I stay strong and remain kind, while abide in love towards those who have hurt me? I needed this music, it's my favorite rendition.
This hymn was played at my dads funeral when I was 6 remember it like it was yesterday 37 years later I still miss my dad and this hymn still breaks my heart 💔
Jesus is always there to run to, I've found. But sometimes it's hard to run to him when we run after other things too much. But he's always there and always will be there.
I have my Nans funeral and helping to carry the casket tomorrow, this is one of her favourite songs and will be played at the service. You are safe in the arms of the father ❤🙏 RIP Norma Penman
I heard this hymn my mother sang sitting on her bed before she slept.. I love it. It brings many memories of her beautiful life when I listen this now. Yesterday was her death anniversary. I heard it many times Thanks. You sang it beautifully.
My best friend died from cancer in july. He was such an important person to me and still is. I miss him more and more and each day. We went through highs and lows, he was always by my side, no matter what. He would do anything to make me happy, to make me feel safe. I played this version at his funeral. I hope that grief will get better someday. I will never ever forget him and will always love him. Audrey, you are truly gifted. Thank you for this beautiful version.
I remember the time i was n ICU... In 2020 when there was lockdown use to listen to this song... And fall asleep I lost all hope of getting well....but the grace of GOD has brought me this far😢
God's blessings to you Audrey Assad!! I have not stopped playing this song, many times on the loop, most days for the past 5 years. Its priceless...saved my life!!!
I was feeling sad and I don't know how this song just came up in my mind...Life has never ending problems but know that the Lord God is always with us ❤
My beautiful mum adored this hymn and told me repeatedly, many years ago, it was her favourite and that she wanted it to be played at her funeral. She sadly passed away last week, and upon looking for a version befitting of the occasion and the lovely gentle soul she was, I found this, Audrey's incredible recording. It will be played at the funeral next week, and I cannot be more thankful to have found it. Mum would have thought this was perfection. Thank you.
This might be weird, and i only just read your post, even though the funeral was over a month ago, I'll keep you on my prayer list that the Lord will comfort and continue to comfort you during this difficult time. I pray that His Holy Spirit will give you a peace so great that only you know is from Him. I did not know you mom, but I look forward to meeting her one day when with The Lord Jesus.
My grandmother, whose name is also Audrey is about to pass away. I can not be there by her bed because of the world’s situation. My grandmother was a devout Anglican for her 93 years on earth, and this was one of her favourite hymns that we will sing at her funeral service. I don’t mean to be tacky to mention this, but I am not religious, and so I didn’t know the song but came here to practice it so I can sing as clearly and surely as possible for her. The performance of this song is so beautiful it moved me to tears singing it. Thank you for such a stunning recording. Thank you to anyone who reads this. Every day we have on Earth is truly a gift.
John 11:25-26: "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?"Romans 10:8-9: "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
I understand why this song means so much to so many. If it can pull at my fundamentally atheist heart strings, then it's gonna go deep into someone with faith. Gorgeous song.
Thank you Audrey this was the favourite song of my mother who put my small Bible in my backpack as I left home and in due time I came to Jesus ithrough reading Galatians 5:1
A great hymn. Today, first time I heard it. I was not aware it's favorite of mahatma Gandhiji. And, its played on 26th January. It's learn, Now, it's stopped by the present Central Govt. Really, it's great soothing heart hymn
It's a great step. We should also drop western instruments next and play our traditional ones on the march. We can play our flute and our indeigenous percussion instruments. We will rebuild our culture and our civilization.
Thank you for sharing this gorgeous arrangement. You have captured the connection that we have with the Holy Spirit. When my beautiful son died, I was lost. I sat in front of the piano and sang this hymn, & also "Great is Thy Faithfulness" over and over. It was what kept my eyes on HIM and not the horrible circumstances of what I have had to face. I leaned on HIM & I AM ALIVE because of hymns like this. This reminds me that HE took my sins & my burdens on the cross. The Father is so good. Psalm 30:11-12 "You have turned my sorrow into joyful dancing. No longer am I sad and wearing sackcloth. I thank you from my heart, and I will never stop singing your praises, my LORD and my God". Fight with HIS sword of truth, & when in doubt, cry it out. HE is always listening. Love to all of you. 💕💕
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.
Things are going on today that's unheard of,I need the lord 🙏 now more than ever and prayer and faith is the key and believing 🙏 is be having hallelujah ❤️ amen.
I'm an Indian Christian. Very sad to know that this beautiful hymn is dropped from being played at *Beating the Retreat* ceremony by the Indian Armed forces this year. Yet I'm glad to know that the Lord abides with me. Edit: I’m glad to know that this hymn was not dropped on yesterday’s R-day ceremony. Regardless of it I’m Glad that my Lord abides with me.
I love this hymn..because every night before I sleep I sing this hymn to invite the saviour to come and abide with me and my children..it is an invitation to the Lord to watch over us as we sleep and to stay with us...
My Father died of Tubercolosis, he wanted to get well again but couldn't...... And left for permanent abode..... He wanted this song to be sung in his funeral so we did.... Dad we miss you... Thank you so much for your prayers... From Mom and me... And Thank you girl.
I lost my dad too, under different circumstances but I know how painful the experience is. Your father picked a beautiful song for his funeral though and I hope it brought yourself and your family some comfort. May he rest in peace, until you meet again ❤️
AMEN. THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST...i need thee every hour.. every moment by moment... I can't live without You LORD JESUS CHRIST I love you. THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST for being with me IMMANUEL. 🙏🙏
This hymn was sung at my sister’s funeral and it gives me such comfort. She drowned in the ocean and when she was helpless in fighting the waves the Lord abided with her and gently guided her to her eternal home.
The most beautiful rendition of Abide with me I have heard. I had the pleasure of hearing this hymn sung by Audrey Assad at my friend's mum's funeral at the Italian church in Clerkenwell London last year. I was moved ❤
Lost my Grandmother due to covid-19. Whole family got infected somehow we all recovered. I was raised by my grandmother. It's been so hard to live without her. Where is death's sting ? Where, Grave , thy victory ? I triumph still, if thou abide with me These lines make me stronger. Such a beautiful hymn.
This song helped me when I was drinking everyday after I lost my child and then my beloved dog, alex. Aubrey's faith may have shifted, but the mood she created with this rendition will outlive her and be a guide for lost men like me for decades to come.
Jason, there is a wonderful God Who created you and loves you and desires a relationship with you. So much so that he died with your sins and mine so that we might be saved. As I said many years ago to my atheist, physician husband, " If there is a God, and where you spend eternity is determined by what is in the bible, don't you think that it is worth looking into? " He took a long pause and said, " yes." It took him a couple of years, but he did and for 20 yrs he's been a pastor. If you have any desire to know the living God and truth, ask and He will show himself to you. Get yourself a King James Bible, start in the Gospel of John and go forward from there. Jesus said, " What shall it profit a man if he should gain the whole world and lose his own soul? " If this song brings tears to your eyes, you must have a soft heart and the Lord is trying to draw you to himself. Our website is: graceandtruthchurch.org . Click on the sermons tab and listen or watch. I'll be praying for you . . .
@@deborahcesar8567 the oldest club football in the history of the world is the Fa Cup, a knockout/bracket competition in England, its where a non league side made up of milkmen and post men can be drawn against multi billion pound teams. After months of matches 2 teams will fight it out to win this trophy starting at 3pm on a hot Saturday in May, but without fail since 1927 at 14:45 everyone in attendance at Wembley will sing this hymn. Its one of those curious things, not so much now but up till the nimeties everyone in stadium would sing along, gives me goosebumps every single time.
Ithis beautiful hymn was costantly on my lips when i would be drivingxon the roads of mumbai for over five decades.unto this date God has kept me safe at the wheels.praise God and thank yoiu God for great mercy.
Deacon Davenport.I love her voice,but theirs much more it's a spiritual feeling like nothing else.It,s the Holy Spirit connecting with my spirit and oh my God hallelujah 🙏 amen.
Such a beautiful hymn and a voice that is perfect!!! Oh, yes, dear Lord, Come and abide with me always. I have never been able to understand how anyone could make it through one day without the Lord by their side, carrying their burdens!!! Such breath taking scenery--compliments of God!!!!
What an assurance we have in our Lord Jesus Christ, the One and Only God, our Only Savior, Our All in All, the One who has loved us beyond all measures!

@@Surya-bz2mw Dude, my point is that they should pray to Vishnu instead of Christ if Christ is an avatar of Vishnu, just cut out the middleman if that is the case. I'm not making fun of either religion, I'm only making fun of stupid people that are members of both religions who do this to themselves and their co-religionists.
Deacon Davenport.This song just touches my heart 💜 and soul.The way she sings it.Let,s me know God is abiding with me at all times,what a blessed assurance,and Master Assurance hallelujah any how amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, God of entire mankind, I worship you and bow down in front of the Holy of Holies, the Righteous Judge, the Loving Father God, the One who hates Sin, God who gave His Only Begotten Son, The Lord who is coming soon. Amen and Amen
We are in need more than ever before to look upon Lord. To raise our voices in praise of his holy name, to ask forgiveness and turn back to him. My father died when I was 22 in 1988 we sang this at his funeral and it gave me hope. I pray that it gives hope to all those around the world today. Praise the Lord
May we turn to Jesus Christ, the Master Healer, at this time in world history when the coronavirus has brought sorrow, death, and ruin to many worldwide. I know the power of Christ is greater than all these things we see in our world today. I am going to pray and fast for the help of God in our struggling world.
@@franmorrison1080 Jesus is returning and will bring peace, but it's dangerous to emphasise that over the fact that Antichrist will come and decieve the world with false peace and safety first. Revelation says that the overwhelming majority of the earth's population will have been killed by then, and that without His return cutting short the time of the Tribulation the entire human race would have been wiped out. Additionally, Jesus is bringing eternal peace only to those who know Him and accept Him as their savior but He's not returning as an amazing world-leader who will bring political, cultural and religious unity and peace - that's what the Antichrist will do, before letting everyone know that they've been tricked and he's out to kill, steal and destroy.
@@marthasylviaoliveiradafons3656 my condolences....I am sorry 😔 I lost my own dear mother August 1st, 2019. But, we will be reunited in glory one day! Praying for you still! 💕
This song is Beautiful. Thank you for singing it. I liked the 3rd and 4th verses, it is different than the one I learned when I was younger. I am a soldier so especially liked the 3rd verse: "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." Thank you again you sing like an Angel.
This British's Hymn , one of the favorite of Mahatma Gandhi being played in each year during Indian Republic day celebrations was sadly removed since last year , this is indeed a Christian Hymn and touched millions of people
What is sad in it? Why India should carry its colonial era things going forward.. P.S. personally I love the hymn and nothing against christianity either
An Anglican minister dying of tuberculosis in 1847 gave us this beautiful, magnificent song before he departed this world for heaven. Ms. Assad's splendid voice perfects it.
Myself Joyce Benjamin got married to my love who is a hindu as we are near our one month anniversary I feel blessed this is my favorite song... God please be with me.. Everybody here who read my comments please keep me in prayers... As I prepare for Indian Administration Services of India.. I want life with abundant blessings

Please return back to your first love, not to religion but to Jesus. Repent before it's too late! Don't be deceived by doctrines of demons or seduced to fleshly desires. Repent and SIN no more!
May God bless you but nothing will ever top this version for me a God given voice of an angel xx

“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
Philippians 2:10-11 (NKJV)
I can find myself in your shoes brother. I pray that may in the Holy name of our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ may we be truly transformed to live for Him & do our Heavenly Father's will.
Because it is written in His Holy Word that if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away and all things have become new. II Cor. 5:17
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 (NKJV)
God bless you, keep you, and deliver you. He has made a way for you.
When I was at school I said to my music teacher that I didn't want to sing this hymn because it made me cry. He replied "So, you understand the song?" I still cry 50 years later.
👍
So young and yet so wise and empathic. That's a gift. God bless you 🙏
❤️
I do too....I dont know why, it is a comforting and Blessed song, but when I get to the "helpless" I just sob, every time.....

Listening this song from a hospital cabin. My wife delivered our 2nd baby amid the coronavirus resurgence in Mizoram. Its amazing how the Lord abides with us. When befallen by difficulties and we thought our plans have failed, He makes us see that His ways are better than ours'. "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

I am a Catholic, who was once lost after walking the wrong way. I fell into temptation and carried many mortal sins on my back. It left me with nothingness, no where to go to. My depression became very severe in March 2022 and I gave myself room to heal. It felt awkward as a Catholic since I once thought of leaving God for a hedonistic life. I was drowned in shame, a little bit like Judas, but in the end, a few unfortunate events in life caused me to seek refuge in God's arms. My God's arms, and no other.
It was during my darkest hours, Lord Jesus appeared before me in my dreams. I cried. As I am writing this, I realised how wrong I was to leave in the first place, when my Lord had never forsaken me.
I want to return to God. I want to rely on my Lord Jesus again. Everything that I have been through, I don't have the energy to carry that burden alone. I don't have the strength to carry my sins. I need Jesus to hold my hands and open my blind eyes so I can trust him again.
I am coming back, Father. Your servant faithfully follows you from now on.
God bless this soul.
Matthew 11:28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
My mother passed away unexpectedly last night. I found this hymn today. Lord, please, show me mercy and give me peace. Abide with me, Lord, for your servant needs you!!
Kade Pierce peace and comfort of the Holy Spirit for your loss.
Your mother is smiling because she is with our Lord. No need to worry about her now.
Kade Pierce: Perhaps it is Divine Providence that led you to find this masterpiece of a hymnal message now. I am sorry for your sadness here on Earth, but please rejoice that your mother is happily in the presence and care of Our Lord. 💜🕊️💜
The Lord bless you and keep you all the days of your life, may His face shine upon you and be gracious to you, In Jesus Name, Amen.
The Lord will abide in life and in death. I too lost my Mum this year, 10 mths ago. I am still in pain when I think of the moments of her passing. But this hymn describes that when earth's pain ebbs away, Heaven's morning breaks. We say goodbye, but there is a grand welcoming ceremony over there.
I sing this song every night believing that God will abide with me while I sleep and He has never disappointed me. Glory be to His name
If I die young, I hope there’s someone to hum this hymn over what’s left of me. May whoever reads this find health, wealth, peace, healing, love, solitude or any of your heart’s desires. You are loved beyond your capacity to rationalize or understand. I love you. Be at peace and in your nature.❤
May you find that the spirit in this hymn will reach you throughout you life whenever you need god. 💛
I remember after a particularly rough day, after my husband died, I fell to my knees, crying and singing this song. Somehow it gave me the strength to get back up. Very grateful for that.
God bless you sister!
I'm encouraged that the Lord used the words of this hymn to help you carry on and I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
Also, for the information of you and others who view this, there is another verse in this hymn that precedes the last verse and the lyrics thereof are as follows:
I need Thy presence every passing hour.
What but Thy grace can foil the Tempter's power?
Who but Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
Plus, I can't say enough of how grateful I am to the Lord for His faithfulness in standing beside me and guiding me through this COVID 19 crisis with His light from above and I know that He will bring it to an end in His perfectly wise time and when He sees that it has accomplished the work for which He purposed it.
To Him be praise for His glorious reign!

My favorite song. Forever. My mother would sing this as a lullaby & I would fall asleep in a few minutes.. I now know why she would sing it.. looking back.. I miss her. Life is difficult but God is always faithful.
God bless you
January 1st of 2022 I was listening to this for comfort because of covid19. God is still God even when all is going bad, and this song reminded me of that
Amazing song
Amen, friend!
The loss of a parent is such a terrible pain, and I’m so sorry to hear you lost your wonderful mother. I’m a ‘mummy’s boy’ myself and mine is the most important person in the world to me. Rest assured, she is now at peace, and you will see her again when your time comes ❤️ I’m sure you’re making her proud
My wife passed away in May of 2020 and everyday without her has been an enormous struggle. Wife, best friend, confidante, soul mate, life partner, she was everything to me and she died so young and unexpectedly. Life is without joy, love and peace and I do not feel any sense of purpose or meaning.
Listening to this hymn now made me weep bitterly. All the memories of my sweetheart came flooding back however the assurance that the Father is always with us and pointed to the sky and called her home when she closed her eyes on earth for the last time and opened them in Paradise for the first time, strengthens me. Thank you Father God in Yeshua Your Son's name Amen. Shalom 🙏
Sorry for your loss Vinil... May the Almighty continue to grant you fortitude to bear the burden of your dear wife's absence. And may she (continue to) find peace in the great beyond.
@@chibuzorezebili2573 Thank you so much. May the Lord God bless you for your goodness. Amen. 🙏
May God bless you!
@@nirahr1451 Thank you. May the Lord God bless you as well.
So sorry for your loss i really feel your pain of loosing your loved one pray that the lord will give you peace and comfort.sending love and prayers
I used to sing this hymn in church when I was in the army. But I didn't believe and didn't understand the words! I do now!
That’s amazing!! God bless you
Congratulations Brother ! I Do 2 Amazing Grace !!!
Lovely to hear that,Neil, the events in our lives give the words a deep meaning.
Thank God. He will be with those who believe in Him forever Mt. 28, 20
Awesome testimony! So glad that you now believe and understand 😊...Jesus is our only help in times of trouble, we all need Him in our lives and ask Him for help with a humble heart
This song makes me cry whenever I hear this. I feel like walking in the mountain with God. My life is full of pain but God is so faithful to help me, He never leave me. I feel humbled in the feet of Jesus as the answer of all questions in life.I'll gonna sing this song until I die.
I lost my father on Christmas Eve, save to say it will never be the same. However, he had faith in Jesus Christ and I know he is now experiencing bliss we here on Earth can’t even imagine. While I miss him terribly, I take refuge in the Lord and know I will see my father again. Praise be to Almighty God and His only begotten Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! If anyone else comes across this comment please know above anything else you are loved and cherished by a loving Father in Heaven. I know He abides with me every minute of every day. I love you Dad and can’t wait to see you again.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. It’s such a painful experience to lose a father, especially at that time of year. But you are right. He is in the arms of the Lord now, and I’m sure he is waiting patiently and comfortably to see you and your loved ones again ❤️
When I am rejected by my biological family, this prayer helps me to touch His love.
The Bible says when our families forsake us, God will not . He is a father to the fatherless.

PJ Taylor the author of this hymn, Henry Francis Lyte was abandoned by his parents. He was raised by his school master.
Wow. Powerful.
You are loved far beyond any human understanding.
God Bless.
@@madelinerussell6846 I love that!
I don't know why this made me CRY, I was travelling in the college bus, and in my deep loneliness in my mind it made me realise the LOVE OF GOD. I pretended to yawn in the bus to do not let my friends know that I was CRYING.
"Tears are prayers too, they travel to God when we couldn't speak" ~Psalms.
Hmmm
Truly tears are prayers
Charles Spurgeon called tears, "liquid prayer!" So beautiful when words are not sufficient, tears speak volumes! This has comforted my heart many times as the burdens I was carrying were lifted up to my LORD, who alone csn bear them for me! Be blessed!
My husband died 2 weeks ago, I sing this every night, sometimes more than once. This is a wonderful hymn!
I'm so sorry for your loss. May your husband be united with his creator in heaven amen. He's in a better place now. God bless.
So very sorry for your loss.. he's just gone for a while and then you both will be in eternity forever with our dear Savior. Imagine what great things your loved one is seeing right now! Come Lord Jesus! And thankfully we are comforted by Him now 😊🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤
My condolences. May God give you comfort and strength ❤
May His comfort be with you and may your husband be at rest in Paradise. Shalom.
I am a northern Englishman. Nothing, literally NOTHING has ever made me cry in my adult life. The history and delivery of this song is the first thing that has. More beautiful than I could ever put into words.
I hope you realise now that tears are a good thing, saying that this song would bring tears to anyone. You're on the right road mate.
Another commenter posted "Tears are prayers, too, when we cannot find the words to speak." God bless you and praise to the One who also wept Himself, and knows the depths of all our sorrows.
@@sherrykaiser4307Amen
The midnight my wife died, I sang Abide with me more than 40 times before daybreak. I wept all through the night and could not be consoled. My toughest experience in life.
Sending my thoughts and prays
I can’t begin to imagine how difficult that was for you. My heartfelt sympathies to you ❤️ you’ll be reunited with her one day. I promise
Know that nothing you go through will ever be so bad as this. Know too, you will be reunited with her in a far better place. Peace.
I was holding my husband so close in my arms as he took his last breath,this song meant so much to us both,our wedding song and now included in his order of service in a few weeks time!⛪️
The loss I am feeling now is like a stab in my heart ♥️ but my belief that we will never say goodbye brings me great comfort.
Until we meet again my beloved Micky,may God keep you safe in His arms until mine are wrapped around you once more. X❤️

(Edited, please see the new paragraph) I'm not religious, but this song means a lot to me. It's always played at the Challenge Cup Rugby League final, and my Grandad always used to stand and sing it, and now he cant due to Alzheimers, so I learned to sing it for him.
So, unfortunately my grandfather passed away this year thanks to the Coronavirus. This song, though not this version, was played at his funeral. I sang with eyes filled with tears. I just want to say thanks to everyone who posted nice replies to this comment. Even if I dont share your faith, your kind words really touched me. Thank you.
RIP Grandad.
That is so beautiful.
I agree, beautiful!
Grandfather of yours Be healed in Jesus mighty name!
My name is Karl.I just read your comment.This Song means a lot to me also.My Father passed in 2017.At the Funeral Home where my Father laid in his Coffin,the Song(without the words) was played.I could'nt figure out the name until I came on this TH-cam site.I found the name.Listening to this Song with the words is even more touching.I am always reminded of my Fathers passing whenever I listen to this Song.My Father had Dementia before his passing.I am soooo sorry about your Father Alzheimer disease.I pray he gets better.Have a Blessed Day
You are a blessing to your Grandfather. Gods blessings of comfort and peace to you and your Grandfather.
For every bruised soul stranded in Afghanistan, especially the ones held captive by their faith in Christ Jesus. We are praying and crying with you.
Be strong!
Yes!
May God our Daddy abide with them and give them peace.
LORD, have mercy!
Yes yes yes
May God bless them all God will act when the time is prudent xxx
I went to a Christian Missionary school (India). We would sing this in the morning assembly. This has so many memories. Also, this was Mahatma Gandhi's favourite hymn.
Yes you're right and it has been played at the end of republic day celebration.

I liked, come back again
@@styrishrodrigues i do again and again😊
Keep your word
Praise the Lord. Our Savior King Jesus is always with us, He will never cast out those who believe and come to Him.
I have told my husband that this is the hymn that I would like played at my memorial service …. I am not having a funeral, just a small family affair …. This became my favourite hymn when I was going through an extremely traumatic time in my life when I was in my late twenties. I’m nearing 70 now, & I still love this hymn. “In life, In death, oh Lord, Abide with me” ……..
💯💯❤️✝️may god bless u, of course, this song has a soothing power to comfort us in our hard times
I too want this at my funeral
Bless you, I hope you have lived the best possible life 😊 it sounds like you have! This is a brilliant song to choose, and I’m sure it will bring comfort to your family
To my great friend Steve K. who passed away suddenly in Toronto on April the 15th 2021.. Rest in Eternal Glory. This was one of his favorite hymns. May the good Lord embrace his family through this deeply tragic time..
Amen.
Amen..
So sorry for your loss ❤️ May Steve rest in peace
2 years ago I suffered severe anxiety and depression so much that I wished and prayed for death at all time, and had suicidal thoughts as well. I heard this song playing over the radio, and that was the beginning of my life changing encounter with God. He abides with us always no matter the situation.
Praise God! HE pursues each of us as a Father! Welcome to the family! And God bless you, sweetheart!
@@deb9784 Thank you. May He bless you too
Dios cambio mi vida soy drogadicto y aqui estoy adorando, honrando y alabando a Dios 💕
Translation: "God changed my life. I am drug-addicted. Here I am, adoring, honouring, and praising God."
This song is ministering to my soul especially during this time. God is still on the throne.
Amen
Me too! It's been on my heart for weeks.
Oh Thou who changes not Abide with me.
Yes indeed, The Lord is seated on His throne and to Him be praise for His glorious reign!
This song makes me think those who are bad are really bad
My mom passed away just a few months n I used to play this song for her evrytime till wen she is sick n passed away..Sleep in peace Momma.
Mine passed as well. My condolences!
My deepest condolences ❤️ the loss of a parent is so tough. May your momma rest in the peace she deserves x
This has always been a favourite hymn of mine. It means more to me now since my dad passed away a couple of weeks ago. I am a full grown adult and I feel so helpless. It seemed like nothing could bring him down. Until a freak accident where he fell off his bike took him from us. I hurt when I dwell on it. I think that will keep happening for a while yet. But I find myself singing this song when I'm at my lowest and somehow I can pull through for one more minute, one more hour, one more day. I'm glad to know it. Thank you for posting.
One more minute, one more hour, one more day ❤
He will never leave you nor forsake you. He is faithful and acquainted with our grief.
🙏✝️🙏
Listening to this song and comforted that during our most difficult hours, our Lord abides with us, never leaves nor forsakes us.
Sure
I am 10 yrs old and I love this song
GOD bless you and your family
The world is so full of hate and pain, how can I stay strong and remain kind, while abide in love towards those who have hurt me? I needed this music, it's my favorite rendition.
This hymn was played at my dads funeral when I was 6 remember it like it was yesterday 37 years later I still miss my dad and this hymn still breaks my heart 💔
We sing this hymn at my mother's funeral 3 days ago on new years eve.
My beloved husband died two years ago today and the Almighty God still abides with us
Best song ever
My lonely life has sometimes nothing to run to, nowhere to go, so i always come back to this song 😞
Jesus is always there to run to, I've found. But sometimes it's hard to run to him when we run after other things too much. But he's always there and always will be there.
Yesus bless you friend
I pray God bless you with peace and fulfill your life with love
Lots of love to you my friend, go for some walks and enjoy what you see around you. Life is full of wonder

I have my Nans funeral and helping to carry the casket tomorrow, this is one of her favourite songs and will be played at the service. You are safe in the arms of the father ❤🙏 RIP Norma Penman
Damn, your nan's funeral wasn't long before my grandad's.
It must have been a very difficult day for the family. But I hope this song gave you some comfort, as it did me. May your nan rest in eternal peace ❤️
I heard this hymn my mother sang sitting on her bed before she slept.. I love it. It brings many memories of her beautiful life when I listen this now. Yesterday was her death anniversary. I heard it many times
Thanks. You sang it beautifully.
My best friend died from cancer in july. He was such an important person to me and still is. I miss him more and more and each day. We went through highs and lows, he was always by my side, no matter what. He would do anything to make me happy, to make me feel safe. I played this version at his funeral. I hope that grief will get better someday. I will never ever forget him and will always love him.
Audrey, you are truly gifted. Thank you for this beautiful version.
So sorry for your loss 😢 cancer is a wicked beast. Your friend is at peace now x
I remember the time i was n ICU... In 2020 when there was lockdown use to listen to this song... And fall asleep I lost all hope of getting well....but the grace of GOD has brought me this far😢
I hope you’re doing much better now ❤️ good health to you x
God's blessings to you Audrey Assad!! I have not stopped playing this song, many times on the loop, most days for the past 5 years. Its priceless...saved my life!!!
👍
I can never listen to this hymn without crying
I was feeling sad and I don't know how this song just came up in my mind...Life has never ending problems but know that the Lord God is always with us ❤
My beautiful mum adored this hymn and told me repeatedly, many years ago, it was her favourite and that she wanted it to be played at her funeral.
She sadly passed away last week, and upon looking for a version befitting of the occasion and the lovely gentle soul she was, I found this, Audrey's incredible recording. It will be played at the funeral next week, and I cannot be more thankful to have found it. Mum would have thought this was perfection. Thank you.
This might be weird, and i only just read your post, even though the funeral was over a month ago, I'll keep you on my prayer list that the Lord will comfort and continue to comfort you during this difficult time. I pray that His Holy Spirit will give you a peace so great that only you know is from Him.
I did not know you mom, but I look forward to meeting her one day when with The Lord Jesus.
My grandmother, whose name is also Audrey is about to pass away. I can not be there by her bed because of the world’s situation. My grandmother was a devout Anglican for her 93 years on earth, and this was one of her favourite hymns that we will sing at her funeral service. I don’t mean to be tacky to mention this, but I am not religious, and so I didn’t know the song but came here to practice it so I can sing as clearly and surely as possible for her. The performance of this song is so beautiful it moved me to tears singing it. Thank you for such a stunning recording. Thank you to anyone who reads this. Every day we have on Earth is truly a gift.
John 11:25-26: "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?"Romans 10:8-9: "But what saith it?
The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
I understand why this song means so much to so many. If it can pull at my fundamentally atheist heart strings, then it's gonna go deep into someone with faith. Gorgeous song.
Thank for your honesty. Appreciate your open heart.
I recommend you check out the Gospel according to John.
It is so beautiful, isn't it.
But dear Mark, what keeps your heart fundamentally atheist?
That's the holy spirit in you pulling at your heart .
Jesus loves you. You just have to love Him back. Have faith.
What a great rendition. What a great hymn. "I triumph still, if thou abide with me". Amen
Thank you Audrey this was the favourite song of my mother who put my small Bible in my backpack as I left home and in due time I came to Jesus ithrough reading Galatians 5:1
A great hymn. Today, first time I heard it. I was not aware it's favorite of mahatma Gandhiji. And, its played on 26th January.
It's learn, Now, it's stopped by the present Central Govt.
Really, it's great soothing heart hymn
It's a great step. We should also drop western instruments next and play our traditional ones on the march.
We can play our flute and our indeigenous percussion instruments.
We will rebuild our culture and our civilization.
If singing it gives hope and solace in difficult times, it is indeed worth it.
I always remember my grandmother and grandad they all love this hymn
I listened to this after leaving my sister’s funeral.
O Thou that changest not, Abide with me
Thank you for sharing this gorgeous arrangement. You have captured the connection that we have with the Holy Spirit. When my beautiful son died, I was lost. I sat in front of the piano and sang this hymn, & also "Great is Thy Faithfulness" over and over. It was what kept my eyes on HIM and not the horrible circumstances of what I have had to face. I leaned on HIM & I AM ALIVE because of hymns like this. This reminds me that HE took my sins & my burdens on the cross. The Father is so good. Psalm 30:11-12 "You have turned my sorrow into joyful dancing. No longer am I sad and wearing sackcloth. I thank you from my heart, and I will never stop singing your praises, my LORD and my God". Fight with HIS sword of truth, & when in doubt, cry it out. HE is always listening. Love to all of you. 💕💕
My sister taught me this song yesterday and I can't stop listening and singing it.
That's a wonderful sister!
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.
Words to remember when you're at your lowest. Lord, abide with me.
Yup, true.. ♥
In our lowest and highest, the Lord is our Friend✨
Things are going on today that's unheard of,I need the lord 🙏 now more than ever and prayer and faith is the key and believing 🙏 is be having hallelujah ❤️ amen.
This prayer is the lord blessed assurance that He is still with me and will never leave me amen.
I'm an Indian Christian. Very sad to know that this beautiful hymn is dropped from being played at *Beating the Retreat* ceremony by the Indian Armed forces this year. Yet I'm glad to know that the Lord abides with me.
Edit: I’m glad to know that this hymn was not dropped on yesterday’s R-day ceremony. Regardless of it I’m Glad that my Lord abides with me.
Anilbabu Swarna It is very sad they are dropping the hymn this year. I hope better sense prevails in future.
@@arnabghosh461 but I sense tough times for Christians in India in the near future.
Anilbabu Swarna The song has been put back in the list of tunes. I am very happy for that. India is a great country and our diversity is our strength.
O Lord God abide with me during these days of chaos and corruption. Reveal Your Mighty Arm among the Saints.
This one for you....your majesty...many thanks for all your hard work for the people of the UK....MAY YOU REST IN PEACE NOW
I love this hymn..because every night before I sleep I sing this hymn to invite the saviour to come and abide with me and my children..it is an invitation to the Lord to watch over us as we sleep and to stay with us...
My Father died of Tubercolosis, he wanted to get well again but couldn't...... And left for permanent abode..... He wanted this song to be sung in his funeral so we did....
Dad we miss you... Thank you so much for your prayers...
From Mom and me... And Thank you girl.
The author of the hymn was a minister who was dying of TB, around 1850
I lost my dad too, under different circumstances but I know how painful the experience is. Your father picked a beautiful song for his funeral though and I hope it brought yourself and your family some comfort. May he rest in peace, until you meet again ❤️
This hymn will forever remind me of my dear godmother. This was her favourite hymn, continue resting in peace❤🙏🏽
I love this song. I love it, even more, when I play it at 0.75 speed. The richness of Audrey's voice and the mercy of the Lord just washes over me.
AMEN. THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST...i need thee every hour.. every moment by moment... I can't live without You LORD JESUS CHRIST I love you.
THANK YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST for being with me IMMANUEL. 🙏🙏
This hymn was sung at my sister’s funeral and it gives me such comfort. She drowned in the ocean and when she was helpless in fighting the waves the Lord abided with her and gently guided her to her eternal home.
The most beautiful rendition of Abide with me I have heard. I had the pleasure of hearing this hymn sung by Audrey Assad at my friend's mum's funeral at the Italian church in Clerkenwell London last year. I was moved ❤
‘God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble’🎵🎶Thank you Lord for abiding with us always!!!🛐🙏👏
How comforting hymns are. ❤ What a blessing, Glory to the Father in heaven
Lost my Grandmother due to covid-19.
Whole family got infected somehow we all recovered.
I was raised by my grandmother.
It's been so hard to live without her.
Where is death's sting ?
Where, Grave , thy victory ?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me
These lines make me stronger.
Such a beautiful hymn.
This song helped me when I was drinking everyday after I lost my child and then my beloved dog, alex. Aubrey's faith may have shifted, but the mood she created with this rendition will outlive her and be a guide for lost men like me for decades to come.
I just lost my elder brother I 'm in tears listening this hymn just came to pour out my pain
Sorry for your loss. This song is powerful. Hope you're ok. ❤
This song brings tears to my eyes. Heard it first during the FA CUP final. I'm an atheist though but I listen to this song daily.
Jason, there is a wonderful God Who created you and loves you and desires a relationship with you. So much so that he died with your sins and mine so that we might be saved. As I said many years ago to my atheist, physician husband, " If there is a God, and where you spend eternity is determined by what is in the bible, don't you think that it is worth looking into? " He took a long pause and said, " yes." It took him a couple of years, but he did and for 20 yrs he's been a pastor. If you have any desire to know the living God and truth, ask and He will show himself to you. Get yourself a King James Bible, start in the Gospel of John and go forward from there. Jesus said, " What shall it profit a man if he should gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

@@deborahcesar8567 the oldest club football in the history of the world is the Fa Cup, a knockout/bracket competition in England, its where a non league side made up of milkmen and post men can be drawn against multi billion pound teams. After months of matches 2 teams will fight it out to win this trophy starting at 3pm on a hot Saturday in May, but without fail since 1927 at 14:45 everyone in attendance at Wembley will sing this hymn.
Its one of those curious things, not so much now but up till the nimeties everyone in stadium would sing along, gives me goosebumps every single time.
Deacon Tyrone Davenport.Even an atheist has a heart that God will touch.Know there is no power greater than the spirit of God amen.
This song lulls me to sleep trusting in the ever abiding love of God...
Even though sometimes it feels as everyone has left you, this song gives me solace! Thanks Lord God Almighty!! And to the one who wrote it!

Kevin Perera f
Lovely voice. She sings this so well.
Deacon Davenport.I love her voice,but theirs much more it's a spiritual feeling like nothing else.It,s the Holy Spirit connecting with my spirit and oh my God hallelujah 🙏 amen.
Such a beautiful hymn and a voice that is perfect!!! Oh, yes, dear Lord, Come and abide with me always. I have never been able to understand how anyone could make it through one day without the Lord by their side, carrying their burdens!!! Such breath taking scenery--compliments of God!!!!
What an assurance we have in our Lord Jesus Christ, the One and Only God, our Only Savior, Our All in All, the One who has loved us beyond all measures!
Jesus was an avatar of Vishnu. Cut our the middleman and pray to him instead.
@@kicksomeup6998 ........Vishnu got deshavatars...in which vamana,parashuram,ram,Krishna, bhalaramaand Kali are only in complete human form....mathsya,varaha,kurma and narasimha are not ...which one is Christ....pls don't make others laugh at our religion.... after all ur name tells everything....
@@Surya-bz2mw Dude, my point is that they should pray to Vishnu instead of Christ if Christ is an avatar of Vishnu, just cut out the middleman if that is the case.
I'm not making fun of either religion, I'm only making fun of stupid people that are members of both religions who do this to themselves and their co-religionists.
Deacon Davenport.This song just touches my heart 💜 and soul.The way she sings it.Let,s me know God is abiding with me at all times,what a blessed assurance,and Master Assurance hallelujah any how amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, God of entire mankind, I worship you and bow down in front of the Holy of Holies, the Righteous Judge, the Loving Father God, the One who hates Sin, God who gave His Only Begotten Son, The Lord who is coming soon.
Amen and Amen
Lovely version of a classic hymn, which was one of my late mother’s favourites. Sleep well mum. ❤
We are in need more than ever before to look upon Lord. To raise our voices in praise of his holy name, to ask forgiveness and turn back to him. My father died when I was 22 in 1988 we sang this at his funeral and it gave me hope. I pray that it gives hope to all those around the world today. Praise the Lord
Amen....
May we turn to Jesus Christ, the Master Healer, at this time in world history when the coronavirus has brought sorrow, death, and ruin to many worldwide. I know the power of Christ is greater than all these things we see in our world today. I am going to pray and fast for the help of God in our struggling world.
Amen
Jesus is returning to bring peace and health. Psalm 72
Amen, from the redeemed.

@@franmorrison1080 Jesus is returning and will bring peace, but it's dangerous to emphasise that over the fact that Antichrist will come and decieve the world with false peace and safety first. Revelation says that the overwhelming majority of the earth's population will have been killed by then, and that without His return cutting short the time of the Tribulation the entire human race would have been wiped out. Additionally, Jesus is bringing eternal peace only to those who know Him and accept Him as their savior but He's not returning as an amazing world-leader who will bring political, cultural and religious unity and peace - that's what the Antichrist will do, before letting everyone know that they've been tricked and he's out to kill, steal and destroy.
I love this arrangement so much. It speaks to my heart. And reverberates there. And finds it’s place . A peace. Deep within .
Why this makes me cry 😞. How greatly our Lord has loved us.
Bless thy name thy kingdom come.
Putting this beautiful song on for my mother to hear. Mom is in the ICU with Autoimmune Encephalitis and lowered consciousness.
Asking God for help...

@@marthasylviaoliveiradafons3656 my condolences....I am sorry 😔 I lost my own dear mother August 1st, 2019. But, we will be reunited in glory one day! Praying for you still! 💕
Thank you!
My condolences too and Amen.
Please, pray for Brazil, my country.
Picked this for my mom's service. I listen to it when I miss her. So beautiful and sad at the same time.
This song is Beautiful. Thank you for singing it. I liked the 3rd and 4th verses, it is different than the one I learned when I was younger. I am a soldier so especially liked the 3rd verse:
"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."
Thank you again you sing like an Angel.
The history behind this hymn makes it more profound. Such Grace.
This British's Hymn , one of the favorite of Mahatma Gandhi being played in each year during Indian Republic day celebrations was sadly removed since last year , this is indeed a Christian Hymn and touched millions of people
What is sad in it? Why India should carry its colonial era things going forward..
P.S. personally I love the hymn and nothing against christianity either
An Anglican minister dying of tuberculosis in 1847 gave us this beautiful, magnificent song before he departed this world for heaven. Ms. Assad's splendid voice perfects it.
Myself Joyce Benjamin got married to my love who is a hindu as we are near our one month anniversary I feel blessed this is my favorite song... God please be with me.. Everybody here who read my comments please keep me in prayers... As I prepare for Indian Administration Services of India.. I want life with abundant blessings
A truly wonderful and inspiring hymn to bring comfort and hope in trying times. Thank God for goodness and mercies.
Touches my soul. Thank you and to God be the glory.
Lucas Tarquino - and all praise and honour, forevermore. Amen
