     C#m        A2          B2         E
I am thine oh Lord, I have heard your voice
       C#m        A2     B2
And it told your love to me
       C#m     A2          B2      E
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
       C#m      A2       E
And be closer drawn to thee

                  C#m     A2  E   B2
Chorus:     Draw me near____er
       C#m          A2         E    B2
To the cross where Thou hast died
        C#m     A2  E   B2
Draw me near____er
        C#m       A2       B
To Your precious bleeding side

                C#m        A2          B2     E
There are great depths of love that I cannot know
        C#m      A2     B2
Till I cross the narrow sea
           C#m        A2         B        E
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
        C#m      A2         E
Till I rest in peace with thee

Chorus

   You draw me as a bride
C#m                            A        B
   You draw me closer to your precious side

     C#m       A2          B2       E
Consecrate me now to Your service, Lord
       C#m       A2      B2
By the power of grace, divine
       C#m       A2          B2       E
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope
       C#m      A2      E
And my will be lost in Thine
