I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice

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.
 
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!
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.

Powerful lyrics that resonate great rythm of love and steadfastness of Jehovah God through His Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Like Janice preparing to focus on God this early evening 2 Hymns came to my mind reminding about the Cross.

one was 'Draw me nearer nearer Blessed Lord' the other 'Jesus paid it All'.

Jesu, of thee shall be my song,

To thee my heart and soul belong;

All that I am or have is thine,

And thou, sweet Saviour, thou art mine.

Jesu, my Lord, I thee adore,

O make me love thee more and more. Halleluyah

Laurens, SC, United States

As I was preparing to pray this morning, I asked God to help me get in the right frame of mind because I seemed to be so distracted by other things. This song immediately came to mind. I consider it a gift from God because reading the lyrics absolutely prepared me to speak to the Lord as “friend to friend. ”

Very nice hymn that soothes the soul and me to stay closer to Almighty God
