joan baez – just a closer walk with thee 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.

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.

through this world of toil and snares,
if i falter, lord, who cares?
who with me my burden shares?
none but thee, dear lord, none but thee.

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 will be no more;
guide me gently, safely o’er
to thy kingdom sh-r-, to thy sh-r-.

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.
