Nearer My God To Thee |
The minister was preaching |
And the crowd was standing near |
The congregation sang in a tune |
In the hall, it was loud and clear |
All of the crowd that stood all around him |
They were crying as I could plainly see |
Oh, the songs that they sang was so touching |
They were singing to my God to Thee |
Nearer my God to thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Kept on singing |
Nearer my God to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Sometimes, I like to be in company |
But when I get out, I like to stay out for long |
Song is the only thing that can control me, Lord |
When I know trouble, trouble’s about to come |
I fall down on my knees and call God late at night |
And I know He’ll make my, my burdens alright |
I tell him, Lord, I have a desire to be |
Nearer, nearer my God to Thee, Alleluia |
Nearer my God to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer my God to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
I remember I was a little boy |
Mother still used to |
I used to wonder what my mother was doing, have mercy, Lord |
I stepped out one morning found mother all folded up |
And mother had to rise up, she was looking towards the sky |
And I saw the tears as they fell down my mothers eyes |
And I can still hear the song mother was singing |
Nearer my God to Thee |
Nearer my God to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee, nearer to Thee |
Nearer to Thee |
