E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me; still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee. 3 There let the way appear steps unto heaven; all that thou sendest me in mercy given; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee. 4 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 God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee. 5 Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
