[Saundra Duffy]

Here's my heart, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above

Thank you for posting the words to that glorious song. Crying again.

For Mary Schindler ...

How sweet to hold a newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy she gives;
But greater still the calm assurance
My child can face uncertain days because Christ lives ...

Draw Me Nearer
Song of Solomon 1:4


I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith,
And be closer drawn to Thee.

Refrain:
Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the pow'r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

Oh, the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,
I commune as friend with Friend!

There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

BIBLE PASSAGE:

4 Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee.
