Lyrics
I am weak but thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I’ll be satisfied as long
As i walk, let me walk close to thee
Chorus:
Just a closer walk with thee
Grant it, jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to thee
Let it be, dear lord, let it be
When my feeble life is o’er
Time for me shall be no more
Guide me gently, safely o’er
To thy kingdom’s shore, to thy shore
When life’s sun sinks in the west
Lord, may i have done my best
May i find sweet peace and rest
In that happy home of the blessed
Repeat chorus
