Intro: Verse 1: You're my everlasting portion More than a friend, more than a brother More than anything to me And all along my journey Give me the strength, give me the love To walk closer to Thee Lord be the strength, Lord be the love That walks closer to me You're my Fearless Leader, Gracious Redeemer Beautiful Savior, Almighty King You give a brand new start, can heal any broken heart Peace in Your presence, Keep me closer to Thee Keep me closer to Thee Verse 2: Not for ease or worldly pleasure, Nor for the fame, nor for the fortune My prayer shall be Gladly will I suffer, Just give me the strength, give me the love To walk closer to Thee Lord be the strength, Lord be the love That walks closer to me Bridge: I sat alone in darkness with a troubled soul You stood up in heaven ready to take control Removing all the distance that was between You and me Help me never to replace it and keep me closer to Thee Lead me through the vale of shadows Lay me on Your shoulder then bear me over Life's fitful sea Then at the gate of life eternal, Show me the strength, show me the love That kept me closer to Thee Cause You are the strength, You are the love That is closest to me
