Mahalia Jackson - Nearer, My God, To Thee lyrics

Nearer, my God to thee Nearer to thee Even 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 . . Though like the wanderer The sun gone down Darkness be over me My rest a stone . .

Yet in my dreams Ill be Nearer, my God to thee Nearer, my God to thee Nearer to thee . . 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 . .
