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.

Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
  By the pow'r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
  And my will be lost in Thine.

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!

There are depths of love that I yet may know
  Ere Thee face to face I see;
There are heights of joy that I yet may reach
  Ere I rest in peace with Thee.
There are depths of love that I yet may know
  Ere Thee face to face I see;
There are heights of joy that I yet may reach
  Ere I rest in peace with Thee.

I thank God for this song. The way the world is in these last and evil days, when killings, slaying and disrespect for one another. My heart groans as the earth does for the coming of the Lord. I sing this hymn as my heart's desire. I want to be closer to God!

This song reminds me of my childhood and the faith that my mother displayed in God. And it is just amazing that after so many years it still has so much impact on my life, and I am grateful to have the opportunity to grow up in a Christian home.
