Cântăre Draw Me Nearer (Neff)

1. Blessed Savior, draw me nearer,

As I walk the narrow way;

When my soul is sorely tempted,

Thou wilt all my fears allay.

* Refrain:

Blessed Jesus, wilt Thou keep me

Near Thy side, Thy bleeding side;

Draw me nearer, loving Savior,

Let me in Thy love abide.

2. By Thy help I’ll trust Thee ever,

Though the shadows gather round;

Thou my light, and my salvation,

Let Thy grace in me abound.

3. I will walk by faith in Jesus,

On this high and holy way;

Onward will I press and upward,

Drawing nearer every day.

4. When I’m passing through the furnace,

I draw near, my Lord, to Thee;

As I hear Thee gently whisper,

"Closer come, My child, to Me.
