Is this the hymn you are looking for?
When God Is Near by A.H.Ackley 1939

When God is near, with light my path is glowing,
The cup of life with gladness overflows,..
And in the garden of my hear is growing
The flow'r of love more fragrant than the sweetest rose...

When God is near the heavy load is lifted,
And ev'ry duty charms me with delight;...
The clouds of sorrow by His love are rifted,
And songs of joy my soul keps singing in the night...

When God is near the tempter cannot lure me,
The peace of God surpassing sweet is mine;...
"Joint heir with Christ," His mercies reassure me,
And some day I shall dwell with Him in realms di-vine...

Refrain:
When God is near,so near I hear Him speak to me,
My ev'ry need His boundless grace supplies;
When God is near my heart is filled with ecstasy,
And all the wolrd's a paradise when God is near....
And all the world's a paradise when God is near.
