Draw Me Nearer
I am Thine O Lord
I have heard Thy voice
And it told Thy love t-o me
But I long to rise
in the arms of faith
And be clos-er drawn to Thee
(chorus)
Draw me near-er, near-er, bless-ed Lord
To the cross where Thou hast died
Draw me near-er, near-er
near-er bless-ed Lord,
To Thy self now glo-ri-fied.
verse 2 same as 1
Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope
And my will be lost in Thine.
(CHORUS)
verse 3 same as 1
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!
(CHORUS)
verse 4 same as 1
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
(CHORUS TO END)
