V1. It has been a long day,
To my dismay. People
Have put me down.
I must say, “they
Have hurt me today.”
Lord, You see me struggle
You see the strife,
I am in. Though I
Walk in the midst
Of trouble, You
Preserve my life.
V2. You stretch out Your
Hand against the anger
Of my foes, with
Your right hand You
Save me, from the
Throes of conflict.
C. God, I know You
You see everything
I go through.
Lord God abide with me.
V3. Your mercies are to eternity.
You will not desert me.
Please Lord God, abide with me.
