Abide with me, ’tis eventide! The day is past and gone; The shadows of the evening fall; The night is coming on! Within my heart a welcome guest, Within my home abide;

English

Abide with me, ’tis eventide! Thy walk today with me Has made my heart within me burn, As I communed with Thee. Thy earnest words have filled my soul And kept me near Thy side;

Nɔ anyi kplim, zã do xoxo! Za la adza ka, mo Ne nyemeƒo nu kpa kpli wò Akpɔ wò keke li. Xexeame blukɔ do vɔvɔm. Wò me ko manɔ ɖaa!

English

Abide with me, ’tis eventide! And lone will be the night, If I cannot commune with Thee, Nor find in Thee my light. The darkness of the world, I fear, Would in my home abide;
