Lyrics
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
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, nearer) nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, (nearer, nearer) nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
(Thy bleeding side)
There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I I cross the narrow sea
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee
Draw me nearer,(nearer, nearer) nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, (nearer, nearer) nearer, blessed Lord (Blessed Lord)
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
