Author: E. A. Hoffman Hymnal: International Song Service #87 (1895) Lyrics: 1 Draw near, O Christ! to me,
Nearer to me,
Unworthy and unclean
Though I may be;
Come with thy quick'ning grace,
Show me thy smiling face,
Draw near this hallowed place,
Draw near to me.
2 Draw near, O Christ! to me,
Nearer to me,
My soul with strong desire
Burns after thee;
Let me thy joys partake,
Come, ere my spirit break,
For thy sweet mercy's sake,
Draw near to me.
3 Draw near, O Christ! to me,
Nearer to me,
Let all thy wealth of love
Fall upon me;
Touch ev'ry secret sin,
Wash me and make me clean,
Let nothing stand between
My heart and thee. Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER TO ME
Draw near, O Christ! to me
