Nearer My God to Thee (for 9 cellos)

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!
