Close To Me

CLOSE TO ME Everywhere I go I feel Christ close to me; Every day I grow I feel Christ close to me; Every time I’m sad He fills my soul with glee. Oh, dear Jesus, keep me close to Thee. Every day I live I feel Christ close to me; Every time I give I feel Christ close to me; When I sin or stray He calls to set me free. Thank You, Lord, for being close to me. When I’m old and ill I’ll feel Christ close to me; When this body chills I’ll feel Christ close to me; Then I’ll hear Him say, “It’s time this world to flee, Come, my child, be ever close to Me.” These words written to “Games That Lovers Play.”
