O, For A Closer Walk With God
[Instrumental Guitar Intro]

[Verse 1]
O for a closer walk with God
A calm and heavenly frame
A light to shine upon the road
Leading to the Lamb

[Verse 2]
Where is the blessedness I knew
When first I saw the Lord?
Where is the soul refreshing view
Of Jesus and His Word?

[Refrain]
O fire of God, come burn in me
Renew a holy passion
Till Christ my deepest longing be
My never-failing fountain
My never-failing fountain

[Verse 4]
What peaceful hours I once enjoyed
How sweet the memory still!
But they have left an aching void
The world can never fill!
[Verse 5]
The dearest idol I have known
Whate’er that idol be
Help me tear if from Thy throne
And worship only Thee

[Refrain]
O fire of God, come burn in me
Renew a holy passion
Till Christ my deepest longing be
My never-failing fountain
My never-failing fountain

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 6]
So shall my walk be close with God
Calm and serene my frame;
So purer light shall mark the road
That leads me to the Lamb

[Refrain/Outro]
O fire of God, come burn in me
Renew a holy passion
Till Christ my deepest longing be
My never-failing fountain
O fire of God, come burn in me
Renew a holy passion
Till Christ my deepest longing be
My never-failing fountain

My never-failing fountain
