Abide With Me

By: Matt Maher

Transpose:
VERSE 1
         D#m            E   
I have a home, eternal home
         B                      F#
But for now I walk this broken world
               D#m                 E
You walked it first, You know our pain
             B/F#            F#                B
But You show hope can rise again up from the grave

CHORUS
 G#m       F#  F#/E       B          
Abide with me, abide with me
      G#m     F#       F#/E       B         
Don’t let me fall, and don’t let go
 G#m      F#     F#/E    G#m    B/D#
Walk with me and never leave
       E          F#       B
Ever close, God abide with me

VERSE 2
              D#m        E
There in the night, Gethsemane
             B                 F#             
Before the cross, before the nails
     D#m                 E
Overwhelmed, alone You prayed
           B/F#        F#                  B
You met us in our suffering and bore our shame

BRIDGE
                       E    B     F#
Oh love that will not ever let me go
           G#m      E    B     F#      B/D#
Love that will not ever let me go
      E    B     F#     
You never let me go
           G#m       E   B     F#
Love that will not ever let me go

Oh You never let us go

OUTRO
         D#m      E
And up ahead, eternity
              B/F#            F#             B 
We’ll weep no more, sing for joy, abide with me
