Author: P. P. Bliss Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 91:4 First Line: Be near, O God, to me Lyrics: 1 Be near, O God, to me,
Nearer to me;
So shall I truly be
"Nearer to Thee."
Thy face I can not see,
Still be Thou near to me,
Nearer, O God, to me,
Nearer to me.
2 Fold me beneath Thy wing,
Saviour divine;
There may I sweetly sing,
"Jesus is mine."
O'er all life's stormy sea,
My guide and haven be,
Nearer, O God, to me,
Nearer to me.
3 Thy hand, in youth's wild way,
Did me uphold;
Forsake me not, I pray,
When I am old;
I put my trust in Thee,
Now and eternally,
Be near, O God, to me,
Nearer to me. Used With Tune: [Be near, O God, to me]
Nearer to Me
