Seekers, The - Just A Closer Walk With Thee Lyrics






Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus is my plea
When we're walking close to Thee
Let it be Dear Lord let it be

I am weak but Thou art strong
Jesus keep me from all harm
I'll be satisfied as long
As I walk let me walk close to Thee

Through this world of toil and snares
If I falter Lord who cares?
Who with me my burden shares?
None but Thee Dear Lord None but Thee

Just a closer walk with Thee
Grant it Jesus is my plea
When we're walking close to Thee
Let it be Dear Lord Let it be

Seekers, The Just A Closer Walk With Thee Comments
  1. D.... H....

    The pure , bell like quality and perfect pitch and diction of Judith is beyond compare

  2. S.... ....

    That was perfection

  3. J.... B....

    WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
    From a mad keen 74yo Aussie fan.
    GOD---That voice.
    Vaguely remember seeing Judy live in some Trad Jazz club in Melbourne,Australia & then of course she was dynamic.

  4. t.... ....

    unsurpassed beauty in every way

  5. �.... �....

    What a great voice this lady has

  6. R.... B....

    This just splendid. Listen and let that voice and harmonies soak in. We will never see their like again.

  7. r.... t....

    we will never here the likes of this angel again so enjoy folks,she always brings a tear with happiness .

  8. F.... G....

    Class, beauty, talent to the nth degree.

  9. r.... ....

    I find this song so spiritual and uplifting. Judith singing it makes it unsurpassable by any other singer, truly stunning, truly beautiful and truly amazing, that voice is heaven sent!!

  10. D.... S....

    This is my favorite rendition of Judith and the Seekers.  All the lip syncing is in its proper place.  What a joy to hear her at her VERY best.

    D.... S....

    Dan Schell lip synching is a British thing. Australia always did it live

    D.... S....

    sliat1981 this was lip synced to their original mastered recording but if I am aware, i believe they still sang this on set

    D.... S....

    *Synched

  11. 2.... ....

    Nádherný, nejlepší verze.

  12. n.... h....

    Beautiful

  13. E.... ....

    Under-orchestrated, and suitably so) with just a banjo to provide rhythm, beat & melody.
    But I also note Judith's "Boys" weren't playing... the banjo was off stage!!!

  14. D.... S....

    Of all her renditions this is my favorite...video is well synchronized with her voice

  15. L.... P....

    Inspiring. Such a beautiful voice.

  16. J.... L....

    Judith's  strong vocal of this arrangement backed by the lads made this song a hit.

  17. t.... ....

    I think this is the most beautiful arrangement  I have heard. Thank you Seekers!

    t.... ....

    Just check the other rendition in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZhYy1trjwg
    Judith´s voice looks still stronger. Amazing...

    t.... ....

    Nice - but Patsy Cline does it for me...

    t.... ....

    theGarinator it’s beautiful but give Tennessee Ernie Ford a listen.

  18. W.... M....

    When Judy sings the angels stop and listen.

    W.... M....

    Well said.

  19. b.... ....

    PROBABLY THE BEST COVER OF ALL  AND SOOOOO MANY PEOPLE DO THIS  SOME ARE GOOD  BUT  THIS CAPS THEM ALL

    b.... ....

    Speaking of caps...

  20. s.... r....

    that voice brings a tear to my eye

  21. C.... K....

    ...é um sonho.

  22. K.... W....

    when you listen to singing like this....produced without the technical expertise we have today,it's beyond just 'good'. This woman's power and range are simply astonishing.

  23. B.... ....

    u cant compete with me as equal like i offer anyone, you can only knock me down and con giggles from your followers. ninja waltz carrists gimmick saturday. search comment stalker. cant i tihnk outloud without you up my mt. how do you pay back a hidden camera set up? you so dumb you dont remember? begg for fame off my intsututizion or blood? none of you are worth it. who do i call how do i prove it? who wants half the settlement?!

  24. c.... ....

    @peterbalchin sad that some people cannot recognise good music when they hear it. Go back to your rubbish and leave those who appreciate the beauty of Judith's voice to enjoy it in peace

  25. c.... ....

    what a way to settle for the night with Judith's rich voice ringing in my ears

  26. G.... U....

    Praise Jesus!!

  27. G.... U....

    OH ...........HEAVENLY!!!!!!

  28. s.... b....

    AMAZING! woo hooo!

  29. T.... L....

    Yes i agree the only other versioni like as much is the Patsy Cline version, ...was brought up with the seekers music and still like t 2 this day.....

  31. d.... ....

    Oh my goodness,has anyone ever sung this better....its a fantastic powerful and moving version of a great gospel song,Ive heard many NO Jazz versions played and sung of this but none so brilliant,Judith was/is the very best...thankyou for posting.

  32. s.... ....

    I think that this version is pretty good.

  33. P.... B....

    This is terrible music.

    I just feel like having a Simon (Cowell) Movement.

    So much better I think?

  34. a.... h....

    fabulous judith just fabulous.xxx

  35. R.... S....

    My favorite gospel song just got better.

  36. h.... ....

    A Jamieson Smile: "A Prayer of Hope": I wrote this Prayer. It's been read by Rabbis and Priests even by Neurosurgeons. I hope you enjoy the Spirit of faith and love.

    "A Prayer of Hope":

    "Remember to do", not in vengeance, not in grudge but in justice & love.

    "Remember to be" not in malice, not in hate, neither in wrongdoing, nor in wickedness
    but in Spirit & truth.

    So please, Dear God, Our Father, lead us not into temptation
    but deliver us from evil. Amen.

    Veritas,

    Jamieson (Peter)

  37. D.... N....

    Yes indeed the one who created everything wants to personally know you............. and me. It cannot get any better than that!

  38. W.... M....

    Holy moly! tHIS IS SURELY IT!

  39. S.... G....

    just listen

  40. h.... ....

    A Jamieson Reflection: Judith 1966! "As I walk let me walk close to thee,
    dear Lord."

    A Jamieson Note: To walk in (1) "loving kindness", to walk in (2) "love"
    and to walk with (3) "a sound mind" is to walk with the Lord.

    These are the Key Traits of Charity. "None but thee." Just a closer walk with thee." Let it be, dear Lord, O! Let it be."

    May Judith Walk in the Comfort of the Lord,
    forever, Amen.
    With loving eyes & heart,

    Jamieson (Peter)

  41. h.... ....

    A Jamieson Smile: The "Color and Tone" of Judith Durham, the "Timbre of Gospel"!

    With loving eyes & heart,

    Jamieson (Peter)

  42. p.... ....

    just beautiful......................

  43. w.... ....

    @1953jamesh you're are right that,the first time i heard her singing [i'll never find another you] many years ago when i was just a boy i think my testicles dropped i've been in love withher voice ever since,never knew who she was or what she looked like until many years later but i'll never get her beautiful voice out of my head as long as i live

  44. b.... ....

    @1953jamesh ....you are spot on there.

  45. I.... A....

    You can hear every clear as bell

  46. S.... G....

    The sweetest voice on earth

  47. b.... ....

    If you are a singer.......study Judith for never ending clarity in everything she does.

  48. b.... ....

    @sechziger60 ....you are spot on my friend.......no finer singer,that's a fact.

  49. d.... ....

    What a great version of this song. She has a great and soothing voice. I was always a Seekers fan. As as side note I am Jewish but the way she sings this is just great.

  50. r.... ....

    Too lazy to go down and dig but this was on one of my old Seekers albums from the 60's

  51. T.... H....

    Wow, I was not aware that these guys had ever recorded this great song. Wonderful.

  52. g.... ....

    One of Judith's finest moments as a vocalist. There are many....

  53. c.... b....

    I COULD LISTEN TO THIS FOREVER

  54. J.... S....

    Judith a szokásos módon remekel most is !!!

  55. A.... G....

    @BertHigginbottom You're in for a treat. Judith and the Boys sound better than ever...

  56. C.... C....

    Judith, I remember being a big fan of yours in the sixties and having most of your records, they've gone now, moving house three or four times etc but I've recently been introduced to you tube and I thought I'd look you up and see what I used to like all those years ago!
    .
    NOTHING since then has even got near your incredible sound and music,
    .
    Loved it then, still love it now.

  57. g.... ....

    I'm an atheist (or at best agnostic) but I dont think you have to believe in a God to appreciate a voice such as this - this is just wonderful.

  58. T.... ....

    She doubtless strengthened the faith of many, through this song alone. God bless you, Judith.

  59. m.... ....

    thanks to dazbluey for posting this song back in July - I listened to it regularly prior to that and then all of a sudden it disappeared with some of my other favorites.

  60. R.... ....

    Brilliant. Another great rendition of this song is by Mahalia Jackson. It's on the tube somewhere too.

  61. g.... ....

    Agree with that, certainly one of the finest voices I've ever heard - amazing performance.

  62. P.... ....

    Magnificant! For me THE definitive rendition of this song

  63. A.... G....

    Very, very much alive and occasionally performing in Australia, her voice (and charm) better than ever.

  64. r.... ....

    Great is she still alie?
