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 woke in the night singing this song. Haven't sang it in close to 50 years, lol. I am so thankful that I lived in a time when we sang the old hymns, teaching us Scriptural truths. Blessed be the glorious Lord!

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.

The Lord is like a bottomless well. He always has more love for us to enjoy. This is our hope and stay. Draw me nearer to your wounded side. This is where the water of life flows. The joy of knowing the Lord is what draws me nearer to the cross. I have experienced this joy and consecrate myself again and again to this loving God.
