387  LONGINGS — For a Closer Walk with Christ

1. 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 hast died;
  Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
  To Thy precious, bleeding side.
2. 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.
3. O 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:)
  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.
4. There are depths of love that I yet may know
  Ere Thee face to face I see;
  There are heights of joy that I yet may reach
  Ere I rest in peace with Thee.
