Genesis vA
-
Oh for a closer walk with GodB
A calm and heavenly frameC
A light to shine upon the roadD
That leads me to the LambE
-
Where is the blessedness I knewF
When first I saw the LordG
Where is the soul refershing viewF
Of Jesus and his wordH
-
What peaceful hours I once enjoyedI
How sweet their memory stillJ
But they have left an aching voidI
The world can never fillJ
-
Return O holy Dove returnK
Sweet the messenger of restL
I hate the sins that made thee mournM
And drove thee from my breastL
-
The dearest idol I have knownN
Whate'er that idol beA
Help me to tear it from thy throneN
And worship only theeA
-
So shall my walk be close with GodB
Calm and serene my frameC
So purer light shall mark the roadD
That leads me to the LambE

William Cowper
