Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee, Even though it be a cross that raiseth me, Still all my song would be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee. Though like the wonder of the sun gone down, Darkness be over me, my rest as stone, Yet in my dreams I'd be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee. A revancher for me, cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars for God, of what I thrive, Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee.
