Abide With Me; Tis Eventide

I am taking a pause with my quote journal. I am halfway through it and will continue after this week. This past week marks the middle of the semester. Midterms have been going on and so I've been thinking about my Heavenly Father a lot lately. Then today in choir, we sang "Abide With Me; Tis Eventide" for our warm up song and the spirit consumed me. The words touched me so deeply.

1)Abide with me; 'tis eventide.
The day is past and gone;
The shadows of the evening fall;
The night is coming on.
Within my heart a welcome guest,
Within my home abide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.

2)Abide with me; 'tis eventide.
Thy walk today with me
Has made my heart within me burn,
As I communed with thee.
Thy earnest words have filled my soul
And kept me near thy side.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
3)Abide with me; 'tis eventide,
And lone will be the night
If I cannot commune with thee
Nor find in thee my light.
The darkness of the world, I fear,
Would in my home abide.O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.
O Savior, stay this night with me;
Behold, 'tis eventide.

During this midterm time, and as finals arrive in a couple months, I know that He will be with me. He'll abide with me and support me when I ask Him to help me. I am so grateful for this gospel and the spirit. I'm glad I can be in tune with the spirit and recognize when it's speaking to me. I love this gospel and the comfort, the joy, the happiness, the support, and the love it brings to me. I know for a fact that I would not be where I am and who I am today without it and without the guidance of my Heavenly Father. I feel so lucky and blessed to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
