I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice

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

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.

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!

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.
