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 love this song, its always minister to my spirit. It makes my soul pants to be in God's presence for eternity. O the pure delight of a single hour that before His throne I spend, when I kneel in prayer, with thee, my Lord, I commune as friend with friend. Oh sweet Jesus, how wonderful you are!

I love this song. It inspires my commitment and obedience to God. It indeed speaks my heart longing to live for God only and be lost in His love and service. This morning I desire more of God, for my will to be lost in His completely. I just love this song, it speaks to the depth of my heart. Thank you Lord.

This very piece reminds me of the stages of faith I must grow through as a believer. It's a call not just to repentance but daily growth in depth and consecration to God

When I find myself drifting from the presence... this is one of the songs that draws me closer to Lord. Being dropped into my spirit from yesterday till this morning. Glory.
