DRAW ME NEARER

I am Thine O Lord, 
I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise
In the arms of faith,
And be closer drawn to Thee.

CHORUS
Draw me nearer,
nearer, blessed lord,
To the cross
where Thou has died;
Draw me nearer,
nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious bleeding side.

Consecrate me now
To Thy service Lord,
By the pow’r of grace divine;
Let my soul lookup with a
steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

Oh, the pure delight
of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer,
and with Thee, my God,
I commune as friend with friend.

There are depths of love
that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea,
There are heights of joy
that I may not reach,
Till I rest in peace with Thee.
