Let Me Live Close to Thee

Author: J. R. Baxter, Jr. Hymnal: The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship #69 (1938) First Line: In Thy field I would wield sickles brave and true Lyrics: 1 In Thy field I would wield sickles brave and true, In the fight for the right I would dare and do, Spend my days in Thy praise all the journey thru, Let me live close to Thee each day. Chorus: Let me live close to Thee, Take my hand, dear Lord, and guide me all along the rugged way; O let me live close to Thee, Let me walk close to Thee each day. 2 Not the crown nor renown that the world might see, I would work, never shirk, blessed Lord, for Thee, But to know where I go that my soul is free, Let me live close to Thee each day. [Chorus] 3 Help me bear and to share some poor pilgrim’s load, Be my friend to the end of the toilsome road, I would sing to my King in the soul’s abode, Let me live close to Thee each day. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [In Thy field I would wield sickles brave and true]
