RCCG Hymn 34
Let Me Come Closer to Thee, Jesus
"And Abraham drew closer unto the Lord." - Gen. 18:23
Let me come closer to Thee, Jesus, Oh, closer day by day! Let me lean harder on Thee, Jesus Yea, harder all the way.
Let me show forth Thy beauty, Jesus, Like sunshine on the hills, Oh let my lips pour forth Thy sweetness In joyous, sparkling rills!
Yes, like a fountain precious Jesus, Make me new and let me be; Keep me and use me daily, Jesus, For Thee, and only Thee.
In all my heart and will, O Jesus, Be altogether, King! Make me a loyal subject, Jesus To Thee in everything.
Thirsting and hungering for Thee, Jesus With blessed hunger here, Longing for home on Zion's mountain No thirst, on hunger there.
