64. أقرب ما دمت إلى

1 أقرُبُ ما دمتُ إلى
مخلصي القديرْ
ودائماً قلبِيَ في
طريقِهِ يسيرْ

2 لما رأيتُ أولاً
جمالَهُ القُدسي
سُقِيتُ كأسَ حبِّهِ
فانتعشتْ نفسي

3 آمُلُ يا روحَ العلي
يا ساكنَ القلبِ
إضرامَ نارِ الحبِّ في ال
فؤادِ للربِّ

4 فحبُهُ يجعلُني
أزهدُ في الدُّنيا
مفضلاً سُكنايَ في
ديارِهِ العُليا

5 لا تُحزِني روحَ العلي
أجَلَّ مُرشِدِ
يا نفسِ بل سيري مع ال
قديرِ تَسعَدي
