Music: "Only His Love," William James Kirkpatrick |
|
Oh, to be nearer, nearer,
The feet of my Lord and King!
Oh, to enjoy the His presence,
And only His love to sing!
Refrain
Only His love, only His love,
Ever my song shall be:
His wonderful love, preparing above
A robe and a crown for me.
Oh, to be nearer, nearer
Communing with Him in prayer!
Oh, to be stronger, stronger,
My burden of toil to bear!
Refrain
Oh, to be nearer, near
My Refuge, my Hope, my All!
Oh, to be always ready
To answer my Savior's call!
Refrain
Oh, for a faith still brighter,
And clearer from day to day!
Oh, to be more like Jesus,
In all that I do and say!
Refrain
