Lyrics (Hymn #165)
"Jesus, Draw Me Ever Nearer"
Music and Lyrics: Keith Getty and Margaret Becker
Verse 1
Jesus, draw me ever nearer
As I labor through the storm.
You have called me to this passage,
and I’ll follow though I’m worn.
Refrain
May this journey bring a blessing,
may I rise on wings of faith;
And at the end of my heart’s testing,
with Your likeness let me wake.
Verse 2
Jesus, guide me through the tempest,
keep my spirit staid and sure.
When the midnight meets the morning,
let me love You even more.
Verse 3
May the treasures of the trial
form within me as I go;
At the end of this long passage,
let me leave them at Your throne.
