CLOSE TO THEE
1. Thou, my
everlasting portion,
More than friend or
life to me,
All along my
pilgrim journey,
Saviour, let me
walk with Thee.
Close to Thee,
close to Thee,
Close to Thee,
close to Thee.
All along my
pilgrim journey,
Saviour, let me
walk with Thee.
2. Not for ease or
worldly pleasure,
Nor for fame my
prayer shall be;
Gladly will I toil
and suffer,
Only let me walk
with Thee.
Close to Thee,
close to Thee,
Close to Thee,
close to Thee.
Gladly will I toil
and suffer,
Only let me walk
with Thee.
3. Lead me through
the vale of shadows.
Bear me o'er life's
fitful sea;
Then the gate of
life eternal
May I enter, Lord,
with Thee.
Close to Thee,
close to Thee;
Close to Thee,
close to Thee.
Then the gate of
life eternal
May I enter, Lord,
with Thee.
