Just a Closer Walk With Thee Lyrics

Just a closer walk with thee
Grant it Jesus, is my plea
Oh, daily walking close to thee
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be

Oh, I am weak but thou strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I’ll be satisfied as long
Oh, as I walk, let me walk, close to thee (I’ll go on)

When my feeble life is o’er
In old time for me, will be no more
Well guide me gently, safely o’er
To thy kingdom, to thy shore, to thy shore

Oh, just (just a closer walk) a closer walk with thee
(Just a closer walk, just a closer walk)
Oh, grant it Jesus, is my plea
Oh, daily (daily walking) walking close to thee
Oh, let it be (let it be), dear Lord, let it be

Just (just a closer walk) a closer walk with thee
(Just a closer walk)
Grant it Jesus, is my plea
Oh, daily walking close to thee (daily walking close to thee)
Let it be (let it be), dear Lord, let it be
Oh, let it be (let it be), dear Lord, let it be

How Do You Fall In Love Lyrics

How do you fall in love
When do you say “I do”
When is the perfect time
To spend the rest of your life
Now seasons may come and go
Sometimes it rains and snows
And there will be highs and lows
So only you will know.

You never know just where it will find you
‘Cause it can come on you so fast
Or seems like it takes forever
When you want it so bad
But don’t ever take it for granted
‘Cause it’s more than sowing some seeds
It takes sun and water
So give it what it needs.

That’s how you fall in love
That’s when you say “I do”
That’s when you know its time
To spend the rest of your life
Now seasons may come and go
Sometimes it rains and snows
And there will be highs and lows
So only you will know
And there will be highs and lows
So only you will know…

Feels So Right Lyrics

Song by Alabama

Whisper to me softly
Breathe words upon my skin
No one’s near and listening
So please don’t say goodbye
Just hold me close and love me
Press your lips to mine
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Lying here beside you
I hear the echoes of your sighs
Promise me you’ll stay with me
And keep me warm tonight
So hold me close and love me
Give my heart a smile
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Your body feels so gentle
And my passion rises high
You’re loving me so easy
Your wish is my command
Just hold me close and love me
Tell me it won’t end
Mmm feels so right, feels so right

Feels so right

Ah, you feel so right baby

What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Alabama

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
And what a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer

Oh, what peace we often forfeit
And oh, what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
To everything to God in prayer

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Can we find a friend so faithful?
Or who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Ooh
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Are we weak and heavy laden?
Encumbered with a load I’ve carried
Precious Savior still I refuge, hmm
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer
‘Cause in His arms
He’ll take and shield you
Thou will find no solace there

Oh, take it to the Lord in prayer
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Mountain Music Lyrics

Song by Alabama

Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I’ll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway

Drift away like Tom Sawyer
Ride a raft with ol’ Huck Finn
Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle
Daze dreamin’ again

Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I’ll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway

Swim across the river
Just to prove that I’m a man
Spend the day bein’ lazy
Just bein’ nature’s friend

Climb a long tall hick’ry
Bend it over, skinnin’ cats
Playin’ baseball with chert rocks
Usin’ sawmill slabs for bats

Play some back-home, come-on music
That comes from the heart
Play somethin’ with lots of feelin’
‘Cause that’s where music has to start

Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I’ll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway, hey, hey!

Oh, play me mountain music
Oh, play me mountain music
Oh, play me mountain music
Oh, play (yee-haw!)
