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....
The Chorus:
Draw me nearer......
Nearer......... blessed Lord........
To the cross....where thou has died........
Draw me nearer....nearer........
Nearer blessed Lord.....[slow tempo here]
To thy precious....bleeding side........
Verse Two:
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.......
Verse Three:
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....
Verse Four:
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......
The Chorus:
Draw me nearer......
Nearer......... blessed Lord........
To the cross....where thou has died........
Draw me nearer....nearer........
Nearer blessed Lord.....[slow tempo here]
To thy precious....bleeding side........
Tag
To Thy precious....bleeding side......
