Nearer My God to Thee Lyrics

Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee;
Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone;
Yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my God, to thee;
Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

There let the way appear, steps unto heaven;
All that thou sendest me, in mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to thee;
Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise
Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to thee;
Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee;
Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
