1 verse:
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!
2 verse:
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!
3 verse:
Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
