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. |
| 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. |

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. |

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! |

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. |

Sang this song by my father's hospital bed last year. He breathed his last breath as we sang the last words to the 4th verse. This song will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Hello
Hope you are well; The 4th verse to be edited to; There are depths of love that I cannot know till I cross the narrow sea; There are heights of joy that I may not reach till I rest in peace with thee. This version is well known. Lovely hymn :-) Many Thanks

Absolutely love this hymn. Draw me nearer to thy precious bleeding side. I picture my Lord and savior on the cross every time I sing that line. For once His blood touches you, you'll never be the same again. Thank You Jesus.
