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.

This hymn is my prayer today. As I care for my elderly father with dementia, who never loved me as I desired, help me Jesus, to know that, in the hard work of caring for my earthly father, it is truly You whom I embrace. Draw me nearer, Lord, to your precious bleeding side today and tomorrow and tomorrow. Thy will be done.

Draw us closer to you from this world of vanity, sins and sorrow. Let your your loving voice convince our stony hearts of your saving grace. Draw us nearer to follow you daily our dear Saviour and Master.

I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
I have been in the dark for some time. Prayerlessness, bad company, addictions, anger and lost.
When I came back and recommitted my life to the Lord again.. this song sprung up within me. and I want to draw more closer to God this year.
Thank you Lord Jesus🙏
