221. I Am Thine, O Lord; I Have Heard Thy Voice | P.M. |
|
|
| | |
|
| 1 | 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, wounded side. |
|
| 2 | 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. |
|
| 3 | Oh, 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. |
|
| 4 | 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. |
