Nearer My God to Thee
Jan Howard · Singing His Praise (w Bill Anderson) [Decca] [1972]
(Noell Mason)
(Jan)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee
In though it be a cross that raisesth me
(Bill)
Still all my songs shall be, nearer my God to Thee
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee.
(Jan)
Though like a wanderer, the sun come down
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone
(Bill)
Yet in my dreams I'd be, nearer my God to Thee
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee.

(Jan)
There let the way appear, steps onto heaven
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given
(Bill)
Angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee
(Both)
Nearer my God to Thee, nearer to Thee...
