A light to be my guide

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]
