O for a Closer Walk with God
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #437 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God,
a calm and heav'nly frame,
a light to shine upon the road
that leads me to the Lamb.
2 Return, O Holy Dove, return,
sweet messenger of rest;
I hate the sins that made thee mourn
and drove thee from my breast.
3 The dearest idol I have known,
whate'er that idol be,
help me to tear it from thy throne
and worship only thee.
4 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.
