G             D7      G
Thou, my ever-lasting portion,

                            D
More than friend or life to me,

G                    C
All along my pilgrim journey,

G              D7        G
Savior, let me walk with Thee.

D                       G
[tab]                        D
Close to Thee, close to Thee;

G            G7      C
All along my pilgrim journey,

        G      D7        G
Savior, let me walk with Thee.
[Verse 2]
G               D7      G
Not for ease or worldly pleasure,

                             D
Nor for fame my prayer shall be;

G                      C
Gladly will I toil and suffer,

     G      D7        G
Only let me walk with Thee.

D                       G
Close to Thee, close to Thee,

                        D
Close to Thee, close to Thee;

G             G7       C
Gladly will I toil and suffer,

     G      D7        G
Only let me walk with Thee.
[Verse 3]
G                   D7      G
Lead me through the vale of shadows,

                           D
Bear me o'er life's fitful sea;

G                       C
Then the gate of life e-ternal,

      G     D7         G
May I enter Lord, with Thee.

D                       G
Close to Thee, close to Thee,

                        D
Close to Thee, close to Thee;

G                G7    C
Then the gate of life e-ternal,

      G     D7         G
May I enter Lord, with Thee.
