Just A Closer Walk With Thee
Daniel O'Donnell · Other Songs - Daniel O'Donnell
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I'll be satisfied as long as I walk
Let me walk close to Thee.
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
Through this world of toil and snares
If I falter Lord, who cares?
Who with me my burden shares?
None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee.
When my feeble life is o'er
Time for me will be no more
Guide me gently, safely o'er
To Thy kingdoms shore, to Thy shore.
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
