Yes, Lord! ‎#380

380. I Am Thine, O Lord

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.

Refrain:
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.

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. [Refrain]

3 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. [Refrain]

4 There are depths of love that I cannot know
'Til I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
'Til I rest in peace with Thee. [Refrain]
