Abide With Me

The lyrics to Abide With Me were written as a poem in 1847 by Scottish Anglican Henry Francis Lyte. Lyte wrote the poem and set it to William Henry Monk's hymn tune ‘Eventide' as he lay dying from tuberculosis.

The poem has been set with other melodies through-out its existence, but it is the original pairing with Monk's tune that remains its most popular and loved setting.

In addition to regular use in memorial services, state occasions and festivals of remembrance, the hymn has made appearances in countless film and television programs and is still sung regularly at the start of important sports events.

Here a setting by renowned Welsh composer Karl Jenkins ensures this popular hymn tune will remain an audience favourite for years to come.
