A very different and unusual approach to this familiar hymn, the arranger works in the key of d minor and uses a haunting instrumental ostinato of the phrase I am thine, O Lord... throughout the piece. Fanny Crosby's words of the refrain come to life with the reimagined music Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died. The piece ends with a plaintive musical request of draw me nearer. This piece would be appropriate for worship services, recitals, or personal devotional time at the piano. Duration: 3:10.
Appropriate for: Lent, Ash Wednesday, Personal Holiness, Invitation
