O[Eb] for a cl[Eb/G]oser wal[Ab]k with God,
a[Bb] calm a[Cm]nd he[Ab]av'[Bb]nly frame,

Whe[Eb]re is the[Eb/G] bless[Ab]edness I knew

Wha[Eb]t peaceful[Eb/G] hours[Ab] I then enjoyed!
Ho[Bb]w sweet [Cm]their[Ab] me[Bb]m'ry still!

Th[Eb]e dearest[Eb/G] idol [Ab]I have known,

that leads [Eb]me to [Esus4]the Lam[Eb]b.
