MHB 746  – I AM Thine, O Lord; I have heard Thy voice

Methodist-Hymns-746

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, 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.

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.

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.
