Draw Me to Thee

Representative Text

1 Out on the midnight deep
Hear Thou my cry,
Come to my rescue, Lord,
Save, or I die.
Let not the stormy waves
Break over me,
Reach out Thy loving arm,
Draw me to Thee.

Refrain:
Draw me to Thee, Saviour,
Draw me to Thee,
Reach out Thy loving arm,
Draw me to Thee.

2 Hope of the desolate,
Light of the soul,
Now of my lonely bark
Take Thou control.
Yonder the Ark of Grace
Dimly I see,
Reach out Thy loving arm,
Draw me to Thee. [Refrain]

3 Lord, at the open door
Let me come in,
Heal Thou my broken heart,
Weary of sin.
Close to Thy bleeding side
Still would I be,
Reach out Thy loving arm,
Draw me to Thee. [Refrain]
