Nearer still nearer, close to Thy heart Draw me my Savior, so precious Thou art Hold me, oh hold me, close to Thy breast
Shelter me safe in that haven of rest Shelter me safe in that haven of rest
Nearer still nearer, nothing I bring Naught as an offering 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
Nearer still nearer, while life shall last Till safe in glory my anchor is cast Through endless ages, ever to be
Nearer my Savior, still nearer to Thee Nearer my Savior, still nearer to Thee
