Draw me closer, precious Jesus,
Ever closer, Lord, to Thee
With the bands of love and mercy,
Your perfections I would see.
Draw me closer, precious Jesus,
Ever closer to Thy side;
In the hour of sore affliction,
Through the night with me abide
Draw me closer, precious Jesus,
Ever closer to Thy heart,
Till my thoughts and will and passions
Of Thine own are but a part.
Draw me closer, precious Jesus,
Ever closer in Thy love,
Till You call me home to heaven
There to dwell with Thee above.
