Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800; Keith Getty, b. 1974 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #519 (2004) First Line: O for a closer walk with God Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God,
a calm and heavenly frame;
a light that shines upon the road,
leading to the Lamb.
2 Where is the blessedness I knew
when once I sought the Lord?
Where is the soul-refreshing view
living in His Word?
Refrain:
A light to be my guide,
the Father's presence at my side.
In Your will my rest I find.
O for a closer walk with god,
leading to the Lamb.
3 So shall my walk be close with God
with all the hopes made new.
So purer light shall mark the road
leading to the Lamb. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [O for a closer walk with God]
A light to be my guide
