Nearer, my God, to Thee!

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #220 (1898) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee! Nearer to Thee! Through Word and Sacrament Thou com'st to me. Thy grace is ever near, Thy Spirit ever here, Drawing to Thee. 2 Ages on ages rolled, Ere earth appeared, Yet Thine unmeasured love Thy way prepared; E'en then thou yearned for me That I might nearer be, Nearer to Thee! 3 Thy Son has come to earth, My sin to bear, My every wound to heal, My pain to share. "God in the flesh" for me, Brings me now nearer Thee, Nearer to Thee! 4 Lo! all my debt is paid, My guilt is gone. See! He has risen for me, My throne is won. Thanks, O my God, to Thee! None now can nearer be, Nearer to Thee! 5 Welcome, then, to Thy home, Blest One in Three! As Thou hast promised, come! Come, Lord, to me! Work Thou, O God, through me, Live Thou, O God, in me, Ever in me. 6 By the baptismal stream, Which made me Thine, By the dear flesh and blood, Thy love made mine, Purge Thou all sin from me, That I may nearer be, Nearer to Thee! 7 Surely it matters not What earth may bring, Death is of no account, Grace will I sing. Nothing remains for me, Save to be nearer Thee, Nearer to Thee! Topics: God the Father Desire For; God's Grace Means of; Holiness; Redemption Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER, MY GOD, TO THEE
