Draw Me Closer to Thee

Draw me closer to Thee.

When the storms fly around,

And the waves o’er me roll.

I am safe in Your arms,

In the arms of Your love.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Satan’s darts may abound,

But Your armor I wear.

Protected by faith

And sustained by Your grace.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Draw me closer to Thee.

I can trust You, my Lord,

With the plans, you do write.

Your word will prevail

To the end of the age.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Though in darkness I walk,

My soul, You restore.

Your mercies are new

Every dawn that arises.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Draw me closer to Thee,

Near You would I dwell.

Unashamed of Your name,

Satisfied in Your love;

Your voice bringing joy.

Draw me closer to Thee.

Draw me closer to Thee.

When one day You will come,

And gather all to Yourself,

I will forever sing,

For I’ll be closer to Thee.
