1 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.
Refrain: 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.
2 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. [Refrain]
3 When my feeble life is o’er, Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely o’er To Thy kingdom shore, to thy shore. (refrain)
