- Nigel talks about one of his favourite hymns, 'Abide With Me', written by Henry Lyte.
Apologies for the errors on the dates - the ones with regards to Henry Lyte should, of course, be 19th century rather than 20th!
The full lyrics of the hymn:
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.
I need thy presence every passing hour.
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O 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.
Henry F. Lyte, 1847

So moving . I'll always love this hymn.
Its a real tear jerker and hopefull song all in one.
Lord abide with me
Abide with me always reminds me of death, funerals bidding farewell to a loved one. Of hope, of solace in the lord.
I have song it in church, performed it on stage, and pray it every night. It is the song of my soul and I thank God for inspiring the writer to compose it.
Thank you for abide with my.when i sing along .brings me such joy even in my poor health.it is as a athem for me.i pray all your people continue to sing this song.a true christian song based on scripture.
That's very encouraging - thank you, Phillip. I pray that God will strengthen you with power through his Spirit.
One of my very favourite songs that means more to me as time goes on.
The first time I heard this hymne.. it was beautifuly sung by the Priests. It has fascinated me eversince.
Praise Him for His Grace, Mercy, Favour and Love towards each of us who Believe in Him ❤️🙏🏼
Beautiful song. I am a Hindu but I love it's each and every word ❤️

Your message is a Blessing !! Thanks for the reminder that there is HOPE in JESUS!!
And so is your comment! Thank you.

In Australia we sing this hymn to remember the Anzacs. The Australian and NZ soldiers of WW1.

You mention a few times that the events occurred in the 1900s but you are off by a hundred years as Henry Francis Lyte died in 1847. Thanks for posting the video, the hymn is now my very favorite!
Well spotted, John. Apologies for that - I of course meant 18 rather than 19. Thanks for the thanks!
Your message is so proper for our time.
Very interesting commentary. I love this hymn. I would like to translate into Spanish for those who don't understand this language. May the Lord bless all of you.
What a victorious, true Christian message. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words - they are are a genuine encouragement.
Thank you so much for this video. I love love this hymn. God bless you. THERE IS INDEED HOPE IN JESUS! ♥️
Thank you Florence - that's a blessing to read!
Interesting, lovely video. Thank you so much. Just a couple of small errors; clearly you meant 1815 to 1818, not 1915 to 1918 for Lyte’s time in County Wexford - and 1847 rather than 1947 for the year he died at 54. (Easy to misspeak; you had just been relating other 20th century dates.) Then, all is perfect. Thanks again.
Oh yes - good spot, Chas. I hadn't realised that I'd got the wrong century! Thank for your encouraging words.
Aw, the video cuts off after he says, "Enjoy the hymn."😢
There was an episode of "Arena" about Abide With Me - called something like "the story of an English hymn". I've been looking for it, off and on, for a very long time; it's not in the collected lists of editions of Arena that enthusiasts have compiled. If anyone has it, please post it ...
Thank the Lord for you, Brother. Whereabout are you from? Peter from Singapore.
Thank you, Peter. We are in Norfolk - on the east side of England.
good song food for the.toought
1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Ephesians 1:7
I told a fellow worker that due to political correctness that "Abide with Me" was going to be omitted from the cup final" he went nuts.

我需要主，時刻在我身邊，除祢恩典，怎能與魔作戰？
誰能像祢，時常引導扶助，或陰或晴，求祢與我同住。
有祢賜福，我不怕敵和恶；病而不苦，流淚也不痛苦；
死亡毒鉤！撒但攻擊引誘，我都勝過，若祢與我同住。
###############
若我臨終，求祢在我身邊，照明幽谷，求顯救恩十架；
陰霾消逝，指示天上美家，無論在何處，主與我同住。

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, oh, 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
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
Abide with me, abide with me

I think you mean 1847! God bless you!
