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.

To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

By the pow’r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine. [Refrain]

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,

To Thy precious, bleeding side.

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
