Dearer to my heart each day.
As I walk the road beside Thee
Keep my heart unto Thy ways!
Though the world would try and tempt me,
Though the devil’s plans annoy
I will ever lean on Jesus
For in Him is peace and joy.
Loving Father, Thou my Treasure
Richer, fuller, deeper still
As I learn the sweeter meaning
Of abiding in Thy will.
Help me follow in Thy footsteps
Though I may not understand.
For I know that Thou will firmly
Guide me with Thy loving hand.
Gentle Shepherd, Thou my Treasure
Sweeter still through coming years.
Lead me, guide me, walk beside me;
In Thy love I cannot fear.
Mold me, make me more like Jesus
That I may His likeness bear.
Precious Jesus, Thou my Treasure:
Sweeter, deeper, always, e’er!
