Nearer My God To Thee lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee
Even though it be a cross that raiseth me
Still all my song shall be nearer my God to Thee

[Refrain]
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

[Verse 2]
There let the way appear, steps unto heav'
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy give
Angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee

[Refrain]
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

[Verse 3]
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

[Refrain]
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
[Verse 4: Katherine Jenkins & Choir]
Though like the wanderer the sun gone down
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone

[Refrain: Katherine Jenkins & Choir]
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee

[Verse 5]
Then with my waking thoughts, bright with Thy praise
Out of my stony grief, Bethel I’ll raise
So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee

[Refrain]
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
Nearer my God to Thee
Nearer to Thee
