Nearer My God to Thee

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.
