Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
E'en though it be a cross
That raiseth me
There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given
Still all my song shall be
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Though like the wanderer
The sun gone down
Darkness be over me
My rest a stone
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
Excelsior!
Nearer my God to Thee
Steps unto heaven
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given
