Just a Closer Walk with Thee (Traditional) 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. 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. 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. 3. When my feeble life is over, Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely over To thy kingdom shore, to thy shore.

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the king of creation! Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the king of creation! O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation! Come, all who hear: Now to His altar draw near, Joining in glad adoration! Praise to the Lord, who shall prosper our work and defend us; Surely His goodness and mercy shall daily attend us. Ponder anew what the Almighty can do, who with his love will befriend us. Praise to the Lord O let all that is in us adore Him! All that has life and breath come now with praises before Him! Let the "A-men" sound from his people again, Now as we worship before Him!

The Gloria Glory to God in the highest, and peace to his people on earth. Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father, we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory. Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us; you are seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer. For you alone are the holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

O God, Our Help in Ages Past 1. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. 2. Beneath the shadow of your throne Your saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is your arm alone, And our defense is sure. 3. Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting you are God, To endless years the same. 4. A thousand ages in your sight Are like an evening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all our lives away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 6. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be now our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Psalms. 90:1-2, 4-6, 12 Isaac Watts, 1674-1748, alt.

Latin hymn, 18th Century, Tr. by Charles W. Leland Come, Holy Ghost Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest, And in our hearts take up thy rest; Come with thy grace and heavenly aid, To fill the hearts which thou hast made, To fill the hearts which thou hast made. O Comforter, to thee we cry, Thou gift of God sent from on high, Thou font of life and fire of love, The soul's anointing from above, The soul's anointing from above. Praise be to thee, Father and Son, And Holy Spirit, with them One; And may the Son on us bestow All gifts that from the Spirit flow, All gifts that from the Spirit flow.
