Abide Lyrics


Carrie Newcomer Abide

[VERSE 1]
I will bring a cup of water
Here's the best that I can offer
In the dusk of coming night
There is evidence of light
With the pattering of rain
Let us bow as if in grace
Consider all the ways we heal
And how a heart
Can break

[Chorus]
Oh abide with me
Where it's breathless and it's empty
Yes, abide with me
And we'll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me
And we'll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining
Sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now

[VERSE 2]
Let us ponder the unknown
What is hidden and what's whole
And finally learn to travel
At the speed of our own souls
There is a living water
A spirit cutting through
Always changing, always making
All things new
[Chorus]
Oh, abide with me
Where it's breathless and it's empty
Yes, abide with me
And we'll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me
And we'll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining
Sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[VERSE 3]
There are things I cannot prove
And still somehow I know
It's like a message in a bottle
That some unseen hand has thrown
You don't have to be afraid
You don't have to walk alone
I don't know but I suspect
That it will feel
Like home

[Chorus]
Oh, abide with me
Where it's breathless and it's empty
Yes, abide with me
And we'll pass the evening gently
Stay awake with me
And we'll listen more intently
To something wordless and remaining
Sure and ever changing
In the quietness of now
