Draw Me Nearer

ok, I am not very computer savvy sometimes. I could not find a full length version of this song to link on here. So the only thing I could think to do is to put a link on here of the song on youtube. The video is a little cheesy, so ignore that, but there are some really great scriptures on there. We sang this song at church yesterday, and it has become my prayer (especially the last verse) as we are about to enter the Lord's service. So listen and enjoy.

Draw Me Nearer
by Caedmon's Call

I am thine, oh Lord
I have heard Your voice
And it told Your love to me
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee

Chorus:
Draw me nearer
To the cross where Thou hast died
Draw me nearer
To Your precious bleeding side

There are great depths of love that I cannot know
'Til I cross that narrow sea
And there are heights of joy that I may not reach
Til I rest in peace with Thee

You draw me with Your mercy
You draw me with Your love
You draw me with forgiveness by Your blood
You draw me with compassion
You draw me as a bride
You draw me closer to Your precious side

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