When All Thy Mercies, Lord, Reviewing › Representative Texts

1 When all Thy mercies, Lord, reviewing,
Thy love I see,
With grateful heart my vows renewing,
With stronger faith my way pursuing,
Lord I would be
Nearer to Thee! My God!
Drawn by Thy love, nearer still to Thee!

2 Thy love has come in tender healing
So full and free!
Thy mercy and Thy grace revealing,
And now I come to Thee appealing
That I may be
Nearer to Thee! My God!
Drawn by Thy love, nearer still to Thee!

3 Thy love has turn’d my sighs to singing—
Thy love to me!
And now my love to Thee up-springing,
Thro’ all my soul in anthems ringing,
I long to be
Nearer to Thee! My God!
Drawn by Thy love, nearer still to Thee!
