[00:00.00]The Celebration Choir - Draw Me Nearer
[00:09.23]I am Thine, O Lord,
[00:11.69]I have heard Thy voice,
[00:14.02]And it told Thy love to me;
[00:18.40]But I long to rise
[00:20.74]in the arms of faith
[00:22.84]And be closer drawn to Thee.
[00:27.43]Draw me nearer,
[00:30.57]nearer blessed Lord,
[00:32.37]To the cross where Thou hast died;
[00:36.67]Draw me nearer, nearer,
[00:39.69]nearer blessed Lord,
[00:42.89]To Thy precious, bleeding side.
[00:56.18]Consecrate me now
[00:58.64]to Thy service, Lord,
[01:00.90]By the pow’r of grace divine;
[01:05.37]Let my soul look up
[01:07.81]with a steadfast hope,
[01:10.03]And my will be lost in Thine.
[01:14.52]Draw me nearer,
[01:17.50]nearer blessed Lord,
[01:19.36]To the cross where Thou hast died;
[01:23.73]Draw me nearer, nearer,
[01:26.70]nearer blessed Lord,
[01:29.89]To Thy precious, bleeding side.
[01:43.29]Oh, the pure delight of a single hour
[01:47.81]That before Thy throne I spend,
[01:52.31]When I kneel in prayer,
[01:54.50]and with Thee, my God
[01:56.77]I commune as friend with friend!
[02:01.19]Draw me nearer,
[02:04.06]nearer blessed Lord,
[02:05.86]To the cross where Thou hast died;
[02:10.29]Draw me nearer, nearer,
[02:13.33]nearer blessed Lord,
[02:16.37]To Thy precious, bleeding side.
[02:29.72]There are depths of love
[02:32.08]that I cannot know
[02:34.43]Till I cross the narrow sea;
[02:38.93]There are heights of joy
[02:41.36]that I may not reach
[02:43.65]Till I rest in peace with Thee.
[02:48.09]Draw me nearer,
[02:51.12]nearer blessed Lord,
[02:52.99]To the cross where Thou hast died;
[02:57.48]Draw me nearer, nearer,
[03:00.51]nearer blessed Lord,
[03:04.01]To Thy precious, bleeding side.
