Nearer, my God, to Thee!

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #219b (1898) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Tune Title: BETHANY Lyrics: 1 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 to Thee. 2 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 to Thee. 3 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 to Thee. 4 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 to Thee. 5 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 to Thee.

Let us here Thy glory see, And in tender pity make it Now Thy child, and leave it never, Thine of earth and Thine forever. 4 Make it, Christ, Thy member now; Shepherd, take Thy lamb, and feed it; Prince of peace, its peace be Thou; Way of life, to heaven lead it; Vine, this branch may nothing sever, Be it graft in Thee forever. 5 Now upon Thy heart it lies, What our hearts so dearly treasure: Heavenward lead our burdened sighs, Pour Thy blessing without measure; Write the name we now have given, Write it in the book of heaven.
