I am Thine O Lord

(Fanny J. Crosby - William Howard Doane)



I am Thine oh 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 has died

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord

To Thine precious bleeding side.



Consecrate me now to Thy service Lord

By the power of grace divine

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope

And my will be lost in Thine.



Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord

To the cross where Thou has died

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord

To Thine precious bleeding side.

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.



Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord

To the cross where Thou has died

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord

To Thine precious bleeding side...
