Nearer, my God, to Thee,
  Nearer to Thee;
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 a wanderer,
  The sun gone down,
Darkness comes 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 me see the sight,
  An open 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.

We Christians in India when sad things occur in our families.

During our Independence day in India the military band used play this hymn 70 years. Now the Hindu government stopped it.

O Lord, I desire to be nearer to You indeed. Please help me so to be Lord Jesus. In Your Mighty Name I pray.

After hearing this song, I experienced restoration in serving God and gained strength to continue praying and walking with God.

Thank you for sharing this song, I really receive grace and blessings from God.

Humans, even those closest to me, sometimes bring me down, belittle me, and lead me astray and even leave me when life is hard and I have no wealth. But God's mercy remains forever.

Let this praise I offer be a hope and a definite commitment to Jesus.

Tears roll over my face, when ever am reminded that he is always with me even in the moments I turned away from him, he was always there for me.

This song has always been my turning point even in the darkest days of my life. Thank you God.
