draw me nearer

I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice, And it told Thy love to me;
But
I ling 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 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.

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.
