Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer

"Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer"
Music by Keith Getty; Words by Margaret Becker Copyright © 2002

Jesus draw me ever nearer
As I labour through the storm.
You have called me to this passage,
and I'll follow, though I'm worn.

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.

Jesus guide me through the tempest;
Keep my spirit staid and sure.
When the midnight meets the morning,
Let me love You even more.

Let the treasures of the trial
Form within me as I go -
And at the end of this long passage,
Let me leave them at Your throne.

I've been listening to this song quite a bit this week. Yes, I know that I haven't posted anything in a long time -- and I have a post about a trip halfway around the world due to you all ... in due time, dear friends, in due time :)
