Nearer to Thee

Author: Martha J. Lankton Hymnal: Living Hymns #65 (1890) First Line: When doubt and conflict weigh me down Refrain First Line: Nearer, my God, to thee Lyrics: 1 When doubt and conflict weigh me down, and clouds before me rise, Whose gath’ring gloom and deep’ning shade With sorrow fills mine eyes, ‘Tis then I lift my fainting soul, In prayer that I may be Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee. 2 When joys that once I thought so true Have lost each balmy sweet, And withered hopes, like summer flowers, Lie crushed beneath my feet, With quivering lip and yearning heart I pray on bended knee, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee. 3 While day by day I journey on To reach that world sublime, That stands in perfect loveliness Beyond the shore of time; My faith looks up and softly breathes The prayer so dear to me, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee. Languages: English Tune Title: [When doubt and conflict weigh me down]
