New Songs of the Gospel ‎#63

63. Nearer Every Day

1 Draw me nearer O my Saviour,
Nearer as the days go by,
When the storms of life assail me,
To thy shelt’ring arms I’ll fly.

Refrain:
Nearer, nearer ev’ry day,
Nearer, nearer ev’ry day,
Help me nearer draw me to thee my Saviour,
Nearer, nearer ev’ry day.

2 In thy presence O my Saviour,
I can sweetest comfort find,
And thy wondrous love and mercy,
Doth suffice for all mankind. [Refrain]

3 Draw me nearer O my Saviour,
To thy precious wounded side,
And thy suff’rings, thy compassion,
Let my heart no more deride. [Refrain]

4 Draw me nearer O my Saviour,
Let me never from thee stray,
May thy tender love restrain me,
Draw me nearer ev’ry day. [Refrain]
