"A Little Closer to God" — a Country Gospel ORIGINAL from Nashville songwriter, Greg Halvorson
Yes, it's a little out of my vocal range (what isn't?), but I like the words, and "country gospel," a forgotten category, is something Americans need more of… May angels sing it in Heaven. May birds tweet it on high. And may, by God's grace, it be recorded by SOMEONE and bring glory to the Maker of Music and Art! 🙏
“A Little Closer to God”
Oh Lord, the true path, show me the way
Teach me redemption, the glory of each day
When the sun comes up and the rooster crows
Give me the strength and the will to grow
Show me your face in the morning light
Lend me the peace of Jesus Christ
I ride my horse to to the water each day
When he drinks from the river, I bow and pray
Somethin’ about a sunrise,
puts a yearnin’ in the heart and you want to cry
But you build your house upon the Rock,
and you go to work and you punch the clock
Oh Lord, the true path, show me the way
Teach me redemption, the glory of each day
When the sun comes up and the rooster crows
Give me the strength and the will to grow
Somethin’ about a sunrise,
puts a yearnin’ in the heart and you want to cry
But you build your house upon the Rock,
and you go to work and you punch the clock
Hold my hand and we’ll cross the creek,
jump the golden broom and kiss in a tree
We’ll climb every branch till we reach the top
Nearer to heaven, a little closer to God
Show me your face in the morning light
Lend me the peace of Jesus Christ
I ride my horse to to the water each day
When he drinks from the river, I bow and pray
That tree — let’s kiss
Let’s climb —find bliss
We’ll chin every branch till we reach the top
Nearer to heaven, a little closer to God
Nearer to heaven, a little closer to God :)
