Nearer Still Nearer, words & music by Leila Naylor Morris
Transcription available at www.pianomusicnow.com/sheet-music-downloads
Verse 1
Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart,
Draw me my Saviour so precious Thou art!
Fold me, oh, fold me, close to Thy breast,
Shelter me safe in that "haven of rest;"
Shelter me safe in that "haven of rest."
Verse 2
Nearer, still nearer, nothing I bring,
Naught as an off'ring to Jesus, my King;
Only my sinful, now contrite heart.
Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart;
Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart.
Verse 3
Nearer, still nearer, Lord to be Thine!
Sin, with its follies, I gladly resign,
All of its pleasures, pomp and its pride.
Give me but Jesus, my Lord, crucified.
Give me but Jesus, my Lord, crucified.
Verse 4
Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last,
Till safe in glory my anchor is cast;
Thro' endless ages, ever to be
Nearer, my Saviour, still nearer to Thee;
Nearer, my Saviour, still nearer to Thee.

At least everything is easily visible and in the original D flat major. I can probably transcribe it but I hoped to save some time. Thanks for answering. It really is lovely!

"Grant me the cleansing thy blood doeth impart".... Funny how the lyrics stay in a person's memory. Music is it's own language.

[@PianoMusicNow]

It really has some sticking power!
