O For A Closer Walk With God,
A Calm And Heavenly Frame,
A Light To Shine Upon The Road
That Leads Me To The Lamb.
Where Is The Blessedness I Knew
When I First Saw The Lord?
Where Is That Soul-Refreshing View
Of Jesus And His Word?
What Peaceful Hours I Once Enjoyed!
How Sweet Their Memory Still!
But They Have Left An Aching Void
The World Can Never Fill.
Return, O Holy Dove! Return,
Sweet Messenger Of Rest!
I Hate The Sins That Made Thee Mourn,
And Drove Thee From My Breast.
The Dearest Idol I Have Known,
Whatever That Idol Be,
Help Me Tear If From Thy Throne,
And Worship Only Thee.
So Shall My Walk Be Close With God,
Calm And Serene My Frame;
So Purer Light Shall Mark The Road
That Leads Me To The Lamb.
