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. Draw me nearer, nearer, Blessed Lord, To the Cross where Thou hast 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 look up with a steadfast hope, And my will be lost in Thine. Draw me nearer, nearer, etc.
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, Draw me nearer, nearer, etc.
There are depths of love that I can not know, Till I cross the narrow sea; There are heights of joy that I cannot reach Till I cross the narrow sea; Draw me nearer, nearer, etc. Amen.
