Episode Synopsis

This is a beautiful song that is part of my evening ritual when I say good night to my daughter. If you’re looking for a version of the whole song, Sara Groves has a good one. I find this first verse especially to be an excellent prayer of trust and humility. When things are going well, we feel secure, but we see the truth of our helplessness and need for God when “other helpers fail and comforts flee.” May God give you grace to trust him in prosperity and adversity, and to rejoice in his tender care. Transcript: Abide with me Fast falls the eventide The darkness deepens Lord with me abideWhen other helpers fail And comforts fleeHelp of the helpless Abide with me
