[Verse 1]
 
G           D                    G
I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
G      C                G
And it told Thy love to me;
      D                   G
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
G      C    Am D        G
And be clos-er drawn to Thee.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
G            G7  C
Draw me near-er, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G           C    G    D
To the cross where Thou hast died.
        G       G7      C               Am
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G         D        G
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G           D                    G
Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
G      C                G
By the power of grace divine;
       D                   G
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
G      C    Am D       G
And my will be lost in Thine.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
G            G7  C
Draw me near-er, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G           C    G    D
To the cross where Thou hast died.
        G       G7      C               Am
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G         D        G
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G          D                 G
O the pure delight of a sing-le hour
G       C                 G
That be-fore Thy throne I spend,
       D                         G
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
G     C    Am D           G
I com-mune as friend with friend!
 
 
[Refrain]
 
G            G7  C
Draw me near-er, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G           C    G    D
To the cross where Thou hast died.
        G       G7      C               Am
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G         D        G
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
G                D                  G
There are depths of love that I can-not know
G      C                G
Till I cross the narrow sea;
          D                     G
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
G      C    Am D          G
Till I rest in peace with Thee.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
G            G7  C
Draw me near-er, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G           C    G    D
To the cross where Thou hast died.
        G       G7      C               Am
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer bless-ed Lord,
       G         D        G
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
