153. Draw Us to You

1 Draw us to you,
And we will do
What you have taught forever
And hasten on
Where you have gone
To be with you, dear Savior.

2 Draw us to you
Each day anew.
Let us depart with gladness
That we may be
Forever free
From sorrow, grief, and sadness.

3 Draw us to you
That we stay true
And walk the road to heaven.
Direct our way
Lest we should stray
And from your paths be driven.

4 Draw us to you;
Our hope renew;
Into your kingdom take us.
Let us all there
Your glory share;
Your saints and joint heirs make us.
