Oh, for a closer walk with God

Author: Cowper Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #660 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame, And 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 the soul-refreshing view Of Jesus and his word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their mem'ry 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 mourn, And drove thee from my breast. 5 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from thy throne, And worship only thee. 6 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. Topics: The Christian Life Declension and Renewal; Walking with God Scripture: Genesis 5:24
