[Verse 1]
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee!
Even tho' it be a cross
That raiseth me
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer to thee!
[Chorus]
Tho' like a wanderer
The sun gone down
Darkness be over me
My rest a stone
Yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer to thee
[Verse 2]
There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven;
All that thou sendest me
In mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer to thee
[Chorus]
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 Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer to thee
[Break]
Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky
Sun, moon, and stars forgot
Upwards I fly
[Interlude]
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer, my Love, to thee
Nearer to thee!
