O for a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #747 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Amos 3:3 Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God, the calm of sins forgiv'n, a light to shine upon the road that leads at last to heav'n. 2 O gentle messenger, return - return, O holy Dove; I hate the sins that made you mourn and grieved your heart of love. 3 Restore the happiness I knew when first I saw the Lord; refresh me with the radiant view of Jesus and his word! 4 From ev'ry idol I have known now set my spirit free; O make me worship you alone, and reign supreme in me. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, my wand'rings be forgiv'n; so shall his light mark out the road that leads me at last to heav'n.

When sorrow flows from every eye, And joy from heart to heart! 3 When, free from envy, scorn, and pride, Our wishes all above, Each can his brother's failings hide, And show a brother's love! 4 Let love, in one delightful stream, Through every bosom flow; And union sweet, and dear esteem In every action glow. 5 Love is the golden chain that binds The happy souls above; And he's an heir of heaven who finds His bosom glow with love.
