    Lyrics
    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 heav’n;
    All that thou sendest me,
    In mercy giv’n;
    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!

    It's rather equal which religion we have, but this song has no borders for each of us. I'm catholic, living in Germany and played this song on my saxophone as my mother died, 600 km away from me, I just had to play it an at the same moment I knew, she was leaving us, away from pain, but I had to accompany her with my music and so we shared moments as mother and daughter, moments that we never had before. It was a great honour to share these moments with my big Mom, moments of peace, showing into the light, forgive and forget all those horrible things done to us. Mamma, ik vergeet je niet en je bent altijd bij me. Jouw Ireentje

    • @tlove21
      @tlove21 9 лет назад

      I also struggled with the passing of my mother, it was replaced with hope after six long years of blaming my Creator. It would only be after a missionary spoke to me with such conviction in his voice. I felt the Spirit of God testify to my heart that all of us were created by Him and continuity in that journey is dependent on our obedience to His commandments. I truly think you created a bond to remind you of all the joys your mother brought from that single moment. One that extends from birth until her passing, not many persons have that opportunity. God bless you and keep you.

      journey to the Maker that makes this song meaningful. And yes, when that time
      arrives, "angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee" will end the long journey.

      This song was my maternal grandmother's favorite hymn. It described her faith in God and gave her comfort when times were difficult, and sustained her hope in everlasting life through the ransom sacrifice of her Savior Christ Jesus. Even to this day I can hear her singing this to me, as if I were still a little boy, and I find peace. It is my hope I will see her in the Resurrection.
