Just a Closer Walk With Thee
A Soul's Journey: Finding Strength in a Closer Walk with Thee
Lyrics
I am weak
I acknowledge my weakness
But Thou art strong
I recognize Your strength
Jesus keep me from all wrong
Jesus, keep me away from wrongdoing
I'll be satisfied as long
I'll be content as long as I walk with You
As I walk
Expressing the act of walking
Let me walk close to Thee.
Desire to walk closely with Jesus
Just a closer walk with Thee
Yearning for a closer relationship with Jesus
Grant it Jesus it's my plea,
Plea to Jesus to grant the request
Daily walking close to Thee
Desiring to walk closely with Jesus every day
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be
Request for the desired closeness to happen
Oh 'cause when my feeble life is o'er
Anticipation of the end of life
Time for me will be no more
Acknowledging the finite nature of time
Guide me gently, safely o'er
Asking for guidance to the afterlife
To Thy kingdom
Reference to God's kingdom
To Thy kingdom shore.
Expressing the destination of the journey
Just a closer walk with Thee
Reiteration of the desire for a closer walk with Jesus
Grant it Jesus, it's my plea,
Renewing the plea to Jesus
Daily walking close to Thee
Continuing the desire to walk closely every day
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be
Reaffirming the request to Jesus
Oh daily walking close to Thee
Emphasis on daily closeness to Jesus
Let it be, dear Lord
Repetition of the request to the Lord
Let it be
Final plea for the desired closeness
