O for a closer walk with God (Stanford)
Choral
| Composer: | Charles Villiers Stanford | |
| Voicing: | SATB and Organ | |
| Words: | William Cowper |
O, for a closer walk with God!
A calm and heavenly frame!
A light to shine upon the road
That leads me to the Lamb!
Return, O holy dove, return,
Sweet messenger of rest!
I hate the sins that made thee mourn,
And drove thee from my breast.
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.
