The Singing Of I Am Thine O Lord -- Hymn

I Am Thine, O Lord is written by Fanny J. Crosby, 1875 and William H. Doane, 1875.

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.

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
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

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!
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord
To Thy precious, bleeding side.
