O
For a Closer Walk with God
How close are you to God? Do you know Who He is? Is God
first in your life? What are your idols? An idol is something you put before
God. If He is not first in your life, then you have an idol. It could be your
money, your relationships, your television, your bad habits, any material thing
that you cherish more than the Lord. If you want to have a closer walk with
God, then you must give up your idols and follow Him with all your heart.
Lyrics by William Cowper, arranged by William Gardiner
“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!
Where is the blessedness I knew when first I saw the
Lord? Where is the soul refreshing view of Jesus and His word?
The dearest idol I have known, whatever that idol be.
Help me to fear it from Thy throne and worship only Thee.
So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my
frame; So purer light shall mark the road that leads unto the Lamb.
