Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!
Ev'n 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.
VERSE 2
Deep in Thy Sacred Heart Let me abide:
Thou that has bled for me Sorrowed and died.
Sweet shall my weeping be grief surely leading me!
Nearer my God to Thee nearer to Thee.
VERSE 3
Friends may depart from me Night may come down
Clouds of adversity darken and frown;
Still through my tears I'll see Hope gently leading me!
Nearer my God to Thee nearer to Thee.
