Don't know the composer or the work, so this a new treat for me. Gorgeous registration and performance, as always!

Symphonie pour Orgue, Op. 5 - Augustin Barié (1883-1915)

First prototype of a potential rock Juggernauts song . Two poems by John Newton and Willian Cowper mixed in a way they never would have imagined.
Closer

Music – Brian Maunder
Words _ John Newton & William Cowper

Verse 1 
In evil long I took delight, Unawed by shame or fear
Till a new object met my sight, And stopped my wild career.
I saw one hanging on a tree, In agony and blood
He fixed His dying eyes on me, As near the cross I stood.

Verse 2
Never will I forget that look, Till even my final breath (sung incorrectly in demo song) 
Though not a word was spoke, It seemed to charge me with the death.
My conscience quickened, I owned my guilt, And plunged me into despair
I saw my sins, His blood had spilt, And helped to nail Him there. 

Chorus
Oh! For a closer walk with God
Oh! For a closer walk with Thee.


Bridge 1 
Return Oh Holy Dove return,
Sweet Messenger of rest.
I hate the sins that made Thee mourn
And drove Thee from my breast.

  
Chorus

Bridge 2
But something in the look He gave, Said I will free forgive.
This blood is for Thy ransom paid, I die that you may live.
So while His death, my sin displays, in all its blackest hue,
Such is the mystery of His grace, It seals my pardon too.

Oh for a Closer walk with Thee
