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.

I was in a prayer meeting and a fried he is been pulled into a closer fellowship. For three days he has been given the name "Enoch"in his spirit. I realized that "Enoch" means 'rededication'--and then this Hymn started sounding in my memory. I learned it in the early '70s, at the four-square church my grandmother would take me every Sunday as a small boy. I praise the Father for faithful grandmothers.

It came to my spirit after I read my Bible. Indeed I commune as friend with friend. Thank you Lord.
This song came to me this morning during my quiet time and I know that only Jesus Christ can lay His body for my sake and by drawing me closer to Himself will grant me victory over sin. Thank you for this song. It is up-lifting..

Oh God, draw me closer to yourself.
More of you I want to know.
Open my insight to behold thy glory.
Acquaint me with your knowledge and wisdom. Lord, I pray thee oh God, vindicate me, hid not thyself from me.
Let your declarations about me come to pass. I trust in you, I believe in your finished work for me at Calvary.
Let not my enemies laugh at me.
Put them to shame in the name of Jesus Christ.
Help me Lord Jesus to do your will here on Earth. Help me to fulfill my divine assignment/mandate.
