Closer to Thee

Author: E. H. Long Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Growth in Grace First Line: Draw me, Saviour, nearer Lyrics: 1 Draw me, Saviour, nearer, Nearer and nearer to Thee; Let me see still clearer, All Thy love for me. Freed from self, and wholly Thine, Let me in Thy beauty shine; While I sing, O may I be Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee. 2 As the eagles soaring, Higher and higher ascend, Thus, while Thee adoring, Upward I would tend. Far from earth and sin away, Nearer heaven’s perfect day; Even now, O, may I be Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee. 3 As the river flowing Daily draws nearer the sea, Thus may I keep going, Till I’m lost in Thee. E’er advance and grow in grace, Till I see Thee face to face; Then I’ll sing eternally, Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee. Used With Tune: [Draw me, Saviour, nearer]
