Author: Sarah F. Adams Hymnal: The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship #282 (1938) First Line: Nearer, my God, to Thee Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee;
E'en tho' 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 Tho' 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 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! Languages: English Tune Title: [Nearer, my God, to Thee]
Nearer My God to Thee
