Lyrics

VERSE 1

Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

Even 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!

VERSE 2

There let the way appear, steps unto heav’n

All that thou sendest me, In mercy giv’n

Angels to becon me, nearer, my God, to thee!

Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!

VERSE 3

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!
