my husband & I sang this hymn at my father in-law funeral. Hoping people will hear the message that we will all pass away someday, and now is the time to accept Christ as their personal Savior.
When a state of depression or seclusion tried to overwhelm me, this music of worship you share helps me to counterattack in my thoughts. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Knowing that this very song was boldly performed during the shipwreck of the Titanic gives me goosebumps. At times I do think no other piece could have been so properly and beautifully chosen, and that in itself might have been but a mere consequence of God's much-needed, flawless Providence. Doubtlessly I know that this masterpiece could have only been inspired by this physically imperceptible, yet divine driving force which safeguards us day to day. No other force could have motivated Sarah Flower Adams to write it. And on days when one suffers from the painful subjugation of headaches, it is very much appreciated.
1. 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 the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be 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 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! 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! 5. Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!
Just so Beautiful I enjoyed Playing your music To the ill elders They may not remember Anything or even speak The moment I start playing Your hymns They sing Humm The words Smile They knew they do Recall Gods love ❤️ Thank you Means more than So know To see a loved One recall Be happy Blessings
1. Makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu; walaupun saliblah mengangkatku, inilah laguku: Dekat kepadaMu; Makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu. 2. Berbantal batu pun 'ku mau rebah, bagai musafir yang lunglai, lelah, asal di mimpiku dekat kepadaMu; makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu. Kej 28:10-22 3. Buatlah tanggaMu tampak jelas, dan para malakMu yang bergegas mengimbau diriku dekat kepadaMu; makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu. 4. Batu deritaku 'kan kubentuk menjadi Betelku, kokoh teguh. Jiwaku berseru, dekat kepadaMu; makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu.
I am currently writing a story called Le Bateau De L'espoir which means the ship of hope. This story shares inspiration, hope,love and tears. This story shows us what hope is about but that hope was shared by a ship. It was a chosen ship by God. What a story it is sadly the ship sinks on 21st December 1912. This song was the last song to be played but the characters who were on that ship are hero's who sadly went down with the ship. But at the end of the story we see that hope did not sink in fact hope has been there for the entire time. Which is inspirational
Thank you Lord for uding your Gift to inspired people,, I am so hooked of this site,,, I don't get tired if listening to it., so relaxing. . GOD BLESS YOU RICHLY
This version is so beautiful. I've made it part of my directive that this be played in the hospital if I end up dying there. I've also requested that it be played at my funeral. This exact version. Thank you.
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.Refrain: 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 I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee.There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n; All that Thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n; Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee.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.Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest, There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest; Age after age to be nearer, my God, to Thee.
Hi Kaleb. Thanks so much for your lovely music. Several months ago I was going through some severe mental battles and your gentle music brought me a lot of comfort. I guess you never know what effect your music is having out there in cyberspace. :)
Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, Plus près de toi! C'est le mot de ma foi; Plus près de toi! Plus près de toi, toujours Plus près de toi! Donne-moi ton secours, Soutiens ma foi! Même quand l'épreuve Débordant comme un fleuve, Me rapproche de toi. Plus près de toi! Plus près de toi, Seigneur, Plus près de toi! Tiens-moi dans ma douleur Tout près de toi! Alors que la souffrance Fais son œuvre en silence, Toujours plus près de toi, Seigneur tiens-moi! Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, Dans le désert J'ai vu, plus près de toi, Ton ciel ouvert. Pèlerin, bon courage! Ton chant brave l'orage. Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, Plus près de toi. Pèlerin, bon courage! Ton chant brave l'orage. Mon Dieu, plus près de toi, Plus près de toi.

I saw the date. At least I cared enough to say something regardless of the date. Sometimes people say that stuff but don't do anything and they are still thinking about it. I am sorry I misunderstood your comment and regardless of the date I still cared enough to say something because I have lost people that way. Again I'm sorry I misunderstood your comment but at least I cared enough to say something.
Once a soul leaves this world, it’s final. Sadly, if they didn’t believe in the gospel before they perished, there aren’t second chances. It is appointed once for a man to die, then after that, the judgement. That’s why it’s so important to get people saved now
Where can I find the sheet music for this version!!!! Hymns such as this bring out the emotion and feeling in everyone... This is one of my all time favourite pieces of music
Das ist wunderschön und es hat mich tief berührt. Ich gehöre keiner konfession an. Ich glaube an Asgard und seine Götter. Aber Musik spricht viele Sprachen und Kulturen an. Nearer my god to thee gehört zu unseren europäischen Schatz an.
Sir 💌 Greetings !! I'm just listening all your instrumental Gospel hymns and songs.. I'm even practicing and rejoicing at home. Maybe one day I'll record just my song with this instrumental and upload on my channel. Im not a great singer though. But May God's name be Glorified. While listening this music feeling a gladness and peace inside my soul. God bless you !! 💙💌
Rest In Peace Naya Rivera, You Will Dearly Be Missed :((( Until we meet again one day in Heaven, May you find rest in the loving presence of God. Deepest condolences to the family and loved ones. You will be forever loved. Love, Joshua Emmanuel Francis.

Ist dann die Nacht vorbei, leuchtet die Sonn, Weih ich mich Dir aufs Neu' vor Deinem Thron, Baue mein Bethel Dir, und jauchz mit Freuden hier: Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir, Näher zu Dir!
Verso 1 Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti quiero morar Aunque sobre una cruz me hayan de alzar. Entonaré allí este himno con fervor: Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí. Verso 2 Si cual viajero voy con ansiedad, medroso al ver cerrar la oscuridad, aun en mi andar me harás sentir que estoy más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí. Verso 3 Después, al despertar en Ti por fe de mi aflicción altar elevaré. Y cuánto sufro aquí me harás sentir que estoy Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí.

Amen 🙏
Si te hace sentir mejor pensar eso..
I can't believe people could dislike these Gems... You have no Idea how much you have helped me with my walk with Jesus... Love You Brother...
The iceburg disliked the video
@@napadaanlng69 to be honest that kinda toxic
For the iceberg to do that
People know gems. Now I don't know how I found here but it's not like it matters. Great talent! 👍 It's a blessing
my husband & I sang this hymn at my father in-law funeral. Hoping people will hear the message that we will all pass away someday, and now is the time to accept Christ as their personal Savior.
My dad played the piano along time ago when I was a small boy thanks for the memory dad..
Every time I hear this song it makes me cry 😢 and reminds me of my grandmother 👵 I miss her so much and I love ❤️ R.I.P. Nanny
In her eternal dreams, your Nanny is now nearer our God...
Same feelings😪😔😭
I thought I was the only one with a nanny! I don’t hear people call their grandmothers that often.

Feels like that moment now
Titanic the best!!! Like all you guys
Lol
I want to play with him also🙏🏻

yang lunglai, lelah, asal di mimpiku dekat kepadaMu;
makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu.

makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu.

kokoh teguh. Jiwaku berseru, dekat kepadaMu;
makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu.

Hi Kaleb. Thanks so much for your lovely music. Several months ago I was going through some severe mental battles and your gentle music brought me a lot of comfort. I guess you never know what effect your music is having out there in cyberspace. :)
I have an online meeting which is going to be a total mess tomorrow morning. I spent the evening learning and playing this piece.
Thank you Kaleb for sharing this beautiful hymn
Excellent video! You are really good piano player! To God be the glory for he gave you this talent, for you to honor Him! God bless you!
I always sing this song to encourage myself and others to stay hopeful and encouraged.
Im blessed. Thank you. Wish you heavens blessings.
Happy Sabbath from my end.😊😊

Nearer to thee!

The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone,
Yet in my dreams I'd be

Steps unto heav'n;
All that thou sendest me,
In mercy giv'n;
Angels to beckon me
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

Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upward I fly,
Still all my song shall be

So beautifully played, I actually paused for a moment when I heard the first few notes..Thank you :)
+김영언 Wow, thank you!
I absolutely love your music! This is so beautiful!
I'm killing myself with the feels tonight. I don't wanna cry.. beautiful cover.
Even if I really did, you'd be too late.
At least I said something I have never seen this video until tonight.
You may wanna check the date though.
I saw the date. At least I cared enough to say something regardless of the date. Sometimes people say that stuff but don't do anything and they are still thinking about it. I am sorry I misunderstood your comment and regardless of the date I still cared enough to say something because I have lost people that way. Again I'm sorry I misunderstood your comment but at least I cared enough to say something.

Great piano cover, let's pray for all of the victims onboard the RMS Titanic and give them eternal life in Heaven.
Once a soul leaves this world, it’s final. Sadly, if they didn’t believe in the gospel before they perished, there aren’t second chances. It is appointed once for a man to die, then after that, the judgement. That’s why it’s so important to get people saved now
Rest In Peace Titanic, and the 1496 souls who died in the sinking, the 706 survivors, and the families of the dead and the rescued

Näher mein Gott zu dir:
Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir, näher zu Dir!
Drückt mich auch Kummer hier, drohet man mir,
Soll doch trotz Kreuz und Pein, dies meine Losung sein:
Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir,
Näher zu Dir!
Bricht mir, wie Jakob dort, Nacht auch herein,
Find ich zum Ruheort nur einen Stein,
Ist selbst im Traume hier mein Sehnen für und für:
Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir,
Näher zu Dir!
Geht auch die schmale Bahn aufwärts gar steil,
Führt sie doch himmelan zu meinem Heil.
Engel so licht und schön winken aus sel'gen Höhn:
Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir,
Näher zu Dir!
Ist dann die Nacht vorbei, leuchtet die Sonn,
Weih ich mich Dir aufs Neu' vor Deinem Thron,
Baue mein Bethel Dir, und jauchz mit Freuden hier:
Näher, mein Gott, zu Dir,
Näher zu Dir!
Verso 1
Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti quiero morar
Aunque sobre una cruz me hayan de alzar.
Entonaré allí este himno con fervor:
Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí.
Verso 2
Si cual viajero voy con ansiedad,
medroso al ver cerrar la oscuridad,
aun en mi andar me harás sentir que estoy
más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí.
Verso 3
Después, al despertar en Ti por fe
de mi aflicción altar elevaré.
Y cuánto sufro aquí me harás sentir que estoy
Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí.
Verso 4
Y cuando a Tu mansión me llevarás,
gozoso entonaré canción eternal
Más cerca, oh Dios, de Ti, más cerca, sí.
