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

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

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!
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,
I commune as friend with friend!

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.
Ere Thee face to face I see;
There are heights of joy that I yet may reach
Ere I rest in peace with Thee.

All I can say is TO GOD BE THE GLORY, to know that our Lord and Savior died one day just for us!! Thank you heavenly Father for sending your only begotten son on our behalf.
Just sitting in the yard and basking in HIS goodness and thankful for the opportunity to worship HIM in song that the Holy Spirit gave me and to bless HIS Holy name. ✝️

But I’ll never let go
God keep me strong thru legions of
Wrong I don’t wanna let go
Lie down on the field
Surrender my shield
No I’ll never
No I’ll never let go”
Christ Jesus has offered reconciliation
between God and man thru his son.

I was reading and studying my Sunday school lesson from the book of Hosea (11), and saw the love vast love of God for His children! Despite the waywardness and disobedience, He loves us and wants us to be only as far from Him as His shadow! The fourth verse “there are depths of love that I may not know till I Rest In Peace with Thee! What an awesome love!!!!

It reminds me how much my Lord Jesus Christ loved me that he took my place, a sinful man like me and he died for me on the cross.
Oh my Jesus died for me and my sins are washed away. Glory hallelujah.

I love this hymn. It gives me zeal to move closer to God, makes me feel He is with me and more importantly, reminds me of the second coming of Jesus Christ.
