Nearer, my God, to Thee

Author: Sarah Flower Adams Meter: 6.4 Appears in 2,480 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 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 to Thee! 2 Though, like the 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 to Thee! 3 There let my way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee! 4 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 to Thee! 5 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 to Thee!

Nearer, my God, to Thee!

Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Appears in 12 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 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 Used With Tune: NEARER, MY GOD, TO THEE
