See Me Through Part Ii

Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus, if you please
I'll be satisfied as long as I walk
Dear Lord, close to Thee

I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus, keep me from all wrong
I'll be satisfied as long as I walk
Dear Lord, close to Thee

See me through days of wine and roses
By and by when the morning comes
Jazz and blues and folk, poetry and jazz
Voice and music, music and no music

Silence and then voice
Music and writing, words
Memories, memories way back
Take me way back
Hyndford Street and Hank Williams

Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet
On Sunday afternoons in winter
Sidney Bechet, Sunday afternoons in winter
And the tuning in of stations in Europe on the wireless

Before, yes, before this was the way it was
More silence, more breathing together
Not rushing, being

Before rock 'n' roll, before television
Previous, previous, previous
See me through, just a closer walk with Thee

Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it, Jesus, if you please
I'll be satisfied as long as I walk
Dear Lord, close to Thee

I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all wrong
I'll be satisfied as long as I walk
Dear Lord, close to Thee
