(Verse)
Thou, My ev

erlasting portion,
More than friend or life to me,
All along my pilgrim journey,
Savior let me walk with Thee,

(Chorus)
Close to Th

ee, close to Thee,
Close to Thee, close to Thee;
All along my pilgrim journey,
Savior let me walk with Thee

(Verse)
Not for ea

se or worldly pleasure,
Nor for fame my prayer shall be;
Gladly will I toil and suffer,
Only let me walk with Thee

(Chorus)
Close to Th

ee, close to Thee,
Close to Thee, close to Thee;
Gladly will I toil and suffer,
Only let me walk with Thee

(Chorus)
Lead me throu

gh the vale of shadows,
Bear me o'er life’s fitful sea;
Then the gate of life eternal
May I enter, Lord, with Thee,

(Chorus)
Close to Th

ee, close to Thee;
Close to Thee, close to Thee;
Then the gate of life eternal
May I enter, Lord, with Thee
