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.

O the pure delight of a single hour!
I enjoy prayer because God the Creator of ALL the Heavens and the Earth takes the time to meekly have a conversation with me - a filthy blood-cleansed mortal man; courtesy of Jesus Christ.
One hour sounds so much but He doesn't mind much more.
O what a perfect God!!
Thank You JESUS!

The impact of this song is huge. The LORD uses it to speak deep things into my life at different times. He wakes me up once in a while with this song when He wants to impart me just like He did today, I was singing the song and woke up and I rushed here to get the full lyrics but I will make effort to memorize it.
Thank you and God bless you for putting this song here.

I bless the Lord for the lives of all who made this site available. A very inspiring song.

.... similar to the last post, I woke up this morning with the beginning of this hymn singing in my heart but I couldn't remember all the lyrics.
This song is a blessing to the repentant heart that wants peace with God so more than the folly of this present world we live in!

Praise God! I was thinking of the hymnal "consecrate me Lord" not remembering the hymnal is, I am thine, O Lord. Thanks so very much for being here.

I felt far away from God. I thought of getting closer to my LORD. The Holy Spirit sent this song to my thoughts immediately. Thank You LORD, for speaking to me. I feel honoured to be led by Your Spirit. Glory & Honour, Majesty & Praise to Your Holy name. Thank you for this media access. What a blessing!!!

I can't sleep yesterday night until in the morning around 5:15 am. Around 3:00 am, I got a song, "I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord". Some tears can come down with that assurance. I searched for the song, sang a couple times and slept around 5:00 am in the morning".
Yes LORD, now I confirmed Your voice. Thank You for choosing me.

I was at work yesterday... and standing I heard these words..."I am Thine Oh Lord" I am familiar with the song. But yesterday this song gave me a greater meaning than just singing the words, but meditating on what this song meant in that moment. And what Holy Spirit was reminding me of. I am Yours oh God. God was reminding me Natheira you belong to Me. Always love this song.

At the verge of seeking God's face towards His divine direction in fulfilling Purpose/Destiny, after reading the book of Ephesians... I was led to sing this hymn... Closeness to God reveals his mystery.... I particular love the second stanza.... God draw me nearer daily to Yourself I pray in Jesus name.
