I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice

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 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. |

On April 3, 2019 @ 9:37 am I heard the refrain of this song in my spirit. Workers came to install something in my station so I found a quiet place to sit in the presence of the Lord;? and wow I did not know how great His loving Presence for me at that moment through these words of this hymn were. All I could do was release the insurmountable weight I felt and weep. Jesus instantly removed it and filled me with consolation and strength. When I came home, I began to think on all that must be accomplished and as I was thinking to ask, ‘how am I going to get all this done’, before I thought the complete question, the hymn was playing again in my spirit and I know in, with, through Christ by the Holy Spirit is how I must live.

In my devotional this morning the Apostle Paul’s word to the church in Philippi came to me “that I might know Him in the power of His resurrection. In the fellowship of His suffering, being made conformance unto His death. ” This hymn so vividly depicts this heart’s desire. It really blessed me today.

This hymn dropped into my soul when I was cleaning my home this morning. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. I plead O Lord, draw me nearer to Thee. Thank you for the lyrics.
