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.

The Holy Spirit put this song in my heart this morning and it brought so much joy, peace, hope to me.It came at a time when I was lead to set myself apart for a time for the Lord. The lyrics of the song is a commitment to God that I belong to Him and I am ready to do His will. God help us who belong to him in Jesus Name. Amen.

I sang this song in the church as a young boy over seventy years ago and never sang it again until it came to me in the spirit after a bad experience in the church environment. What a solace to me. We serve a loving God!

This hymn ministered to my spirit several years ago during a trial. Hearing it sung on the radio again this morning encouraged me and challenged me to always continue to draw near to the Lord, and I was blessed to meet with the Lord during my devotions this morning. Thank You Lord for this website!
