When we love Jesus, we continually desire to be nearer and nearer to Him. He has promised to draw us to Himself, and will do so if we do not resist!
John 6:44, "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day."
John 12:32, "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me."
May we all desire to be nearer to the Lord this week as we continue in our Christian walk.
Thank you to the lovely listener who requested this beautiful hymn! I have loved this hymn for years and am glad it is finally on this channel. I am continuing to work through requests, so if you've made one recently, and I've responded to it, it is coming! Thank you for your patience!
Draw Me Nearer
Verse 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.
Chorus
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.
Verse 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.
Verse 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!
