Oh, for a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,389 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, a calm and heavenly frame, a light to shine upon the road that leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew when first I sought the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view of Jesus and his Word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.

Thou didst suffer to release us; thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, thou universal Savior, bearer of our sin and shame, by thy merit we find favor: life is given through thy name. 2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed, all our sins on thee were laid: by almighty love anointed, thou hast full atonement made: all thy people are forgiven through the virtue of thy blood; opened is the gate of heaven; reconciled are we with God. 3 Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory, there for ever to abide; all the heav'nly hosts adore thee, seated at thy Father's side. There for sinners thou art pleading: there thou dost our place prepare, ever for us interceding, till in glory we appear. 4 Worship, honor, power, and blessing thou art worthy to receive; loudest praises without ceasing meet it is for us to give. Help, ye bright angelic spirits, bring your sweetest, noblest lays; help to sing our Savior's merits; help to chant Emmanuel's praise! Topics: Jesus Christ Mediator Used With Tune: IN BABILONE
