I am thine O, Lord, I have heard thy voice And it's told thy love to me But I long to rise in the arms of faith And be closer drawn to thee So draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord To the cross where thou has died So draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord To thy precious bleeding side 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 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 So draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord To the cross where thou has died Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord To thy precious bleeding side So draw me nearer, so much nearer blessed Lord To the place where thou has died Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord To thy precious bleeding side
