Nearer, My God, 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! 2 Though like a 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! 3 There let the way appear Steps unto heav'n; All that thou sendest me, In mercy giv'n; Angels to beckon me, Nearer, my God to thee, 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, 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, my God to thee, Nearer to thee! Tune Title: [Bethany]
