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
Though like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone
Yet in my dreams I'll 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
