Closer Still

Open our eyes to the path You have set,
And prepare our hearts for Your ways.
There is not a need that You haven’t met–
Yes, You planned each one of our days.

Guide us individually, and how we are to function as a whole;
Lead our every step–
May Your will be our goal.

You shape who we are, and have a purpose for each one;
Yet we are to function together–as the Church with Your Son.

May we set Your desires before our own tastes,
And surrender our plans to Your will.
May our every step not be taken in haste,
But draw us even closer to You still.
