1. Nearer, dear Savior, to Thee, Nearer, nearer to Thee; Ever I’m stiving to be Nearer, yet nearer to Thee! Trusting, in Thee I confide, Hoping in Thee I abide— Refrain. Take, O take and cherish me, Nearer, dear Savior, to Thee! 2. Nearer, dear Savior, to Thee, Nearer, nearer to Thee; Proved by my trials I’ll be Nearer, yet nearer to Thee! Humbly I come to Thee now, Earnest, I prayerfully bow— 3. Nearer, dear Savior, to Thee, Nearer, nearer to Thee; Ever my anthem will be Nearer, yet nearer to Thee! Loving Thee, ever I pray, Aid me Thy will to obey— 4. Nearer, dear Savior, to Thee, Nearer, nearer to Thee; Let me by holiness be Nearer, yet nearer to Thee! When all my trials are done, When my reward I have won,
