Nearer, my God, to Thee!
Author: Henry Eyster Jacobs Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #336 (1917) 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
The way prepared;
Long hast 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 an 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 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!
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MARK'S
Nearer, my God, to Thee!
