close to Thee

...Savior, let me walk with Thee.

Close to Thee, close to Thee,...

...Savior, let me walk with Thee.

Close to Thee, close to Thee;...

...Break Thou the strong and sub­tle band,

Draw me close to Thee, Sav­ior,...

...With Thy cords of love so ten­der

Keep me ev­er close to Thee,...

...I’ll be sa­tis­fied as long

Just a clos­er walk with Thee,...

...Wherever Thou wilt lead, I’ll fol­low

One pray­er alone my soul is breath­ing:...

...Safe from the ar­rows of the world’s temp­ta­tions,

end...

...Till life’s brief day shall end, be Thou ev­er nigh.

Safe in Thine arms of love, shall my re­fuge be;...

...Still in Thine own pa­vil­ion shel­ter Thou me;

end...
