“A Closer Walk with Thee”

[Nelson Bradford]

Love the LORD your God . . . walk in all his ways . . . hold fast to him. ~ Deuteronomy 11:22

Lord, I am pleading; hear Thou my prayer.
Let me Thy blessed fellowship share.
From day to day Thy servant I’d be.
Grant me a closer walk with Thee.

Refrain
O for a closer walk with Thee!
Near to Thy side I ever would be.
Shield me and hide me;
Constantly guide me
Into a closer walk with Thee.

- Haldor Lillenas, 1924
