Nearer My God to Thee

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! 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! 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
