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.
Tho' 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 my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee.
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.
Nearer my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee

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.

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.

Still all my song shall be, nearer my God, to Thee,
Nearer my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee.

Still all my song shall be, nearer my God, to Thee,
Nearer my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee.
Nearer my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee
