Ordinary Time // Week 16 // September 17-23
SUN OF MY SOUL
Sun of my soul, O Savior dear,
it is not night if you are near;
O, may no earthborn cloud arise,
to hide you from my eyes.
Be near to bless me when I wake,
‘ere through the world your way I take;
abide with me, till in your love
I lose myself in heav'n above
Abide with me from morn till eve,
for without you I cannot live;
abide with me when night is nigh,
when night is nigh
Be near to bless me when I wake
‘ere through the world your way I take;
abide with me, till in your love
I lose myself in heav'n above
