Gaither Vocal Band's 'Just a Closer Walk With Thee' is a traditional gospel hymn expressing a believer's desire for daily intimacy with Jesus. The lyrics acknowledge human weakness and dependence on God's strength, asking for guidance through life and into heaven. The song's simple, heartfelt plea for a closer walk reflects a theme of surrender and trust in God's leading. It is often sung in worship settings and has been recorded by many artists across generations.
I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I'll be satisfied as long
As I walk, let me walk close to Thee
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be
When my feeble life is o'er
Time for me will be no more
Guide me gently, safely o'er
To Thy kingdom's shore, to Thy shore
Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea
Daily walking close to Thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be
