Redeemed Hymn 65 – 0 for a Closer Walk with God

“The heavens declare the glory of God. Ps 19:1

“To walk humbly with God” -Micah 6:8

 

1 0 for a closer walk with God,

A clam and heav’nly frame,

A light to shine upon the road

That leads me to the Lamb.

 

2 Where is the blessedness I knew

When first I saw the Lord?

Where is that soul-refreshing view

Of Jesus and His word?

 

3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed!

How sweet their memory still!

But they have left an aching void

The world can never fill.

 

4 Return, O holy Dove! Return,

Sweet messenger of rest!

I hate the sins that made thee morn

And drove thee from my breast.

 

5 The dearest I do I have known,

Whate’er that I do I be

Help me to tear it from thy throne,

And worship only Thee.

 

6 So shall my walk be close with God,

Clam and serene my frame,

So purer light shall mark the road

That leads to me the lamb.
