Draw me, dear Lord.
Draw me today.
From everything else, dear Lord,
Draw me away.
Draw me today.
From everything else, dear Lord,
Draw me away.

O Lord, this whole world
Seems to weigh me down.
All the cares, the strife, the sin,
Within me and all around.
Seems to weigh me down.
All the cares, the strife, the sin,
Within me and all around.

But, Lord, I want to set my heart,
And, Lord, I want to stay with You.
’Cause only when You’re near to me
Is everything okay.
And, Lord, I want to stay with You.
’Cause only when You’re near to me
Is everything okay.

And though everything may fall apart
Or everything go my way,
It doesn’t really matter, Lord,
As long as I gain You today.
Or everything go my way,
It doesn’t really matter, Lord,
As long as I gain You today.

I really love simplicity and accuracy with which this hymn describes my usual daily experience... this whole world, all the cares, the strife and the sin, within me and all around, seem to weigh me down... Sometimes there are these days when everything falls apart, another time everything seems good and going my way but suddenly, in the midst of the day, when by grace I stop my being for a moment- I find myself away from Him, drained and hollow. Then this hymn serves as a prayer: Draw me, dear Lord. Draw me today, right now and here, draw me away from everything. Lord, I want to stay with You. Cause only when you're near to me is everything ok...
Draw Me every day Lord!

Draw me, dear Lord; we will run after You! Draw me to You more today and everyday. I want to set my heart towards You, away from anything else. Guard my heart dear Lord, by keeping it with all vigilance; for from it are the issues of life-- the fellowship of life, the sense of life, the law of the Spirit of life and the anointing of the Triune-God!"
