Tarry with Me (Scott)

Tarry with me

O my Sav­ior

In my heart and life ab­ide

Keep me by Thy grace and fa­vor

Ever near Thy lov­ing side.

Tarry with me

O my Sav­ior

For I long to have Thee nigh;

By Thy Spir­it guide and guard me

Till I reach my home on high.

Tarry with me

O my Sav­ior

In Thy pre­sence let me rest

Thou dost know my life and long­ings

Thou wilt give me what is best.

Tarry with me

O my Sav­ior

Day is fleet­ing to its close;

Life with­out Thee is but drea­ry

Filled with bit­ter­ness and woes.

Tarry with me

O my Sav­ior

Walk be­side me all the way;

In my joy

and in my sad­ness

I shall need Thee ev­ery day.
