nearer blessed lord
simone, nina
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
to the cross where thou hast died;
bleeding side. consecrate me now to thy service
by the power of grace divine;
let my soul look up with a steadfast hope
and my will be lost in thine
to the cross where thou hast died;
my soul look up with a steadfast hope
to the cross where thou hast died;
