Lyrics of Nearer, My God, to Thee (Arr. James L. Stevens) by BYU Vocal Point
intro
In articulo mortis
Caelitus mihi vires
verse
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee
E'en though it be a cross
That raiseth me
verse
There let the way appear (in articulo mortis, caelitus mihi vires)
Steps unto heav'n (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum)
All that Thou sendest me (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
In mercy giv'n (sic itur ad astra, excelsior)
chorus
(Excelsior, excelsior, excelsior)
(Excelsior) still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
Nearer to Thee (sic itur ad astra, excelsior)
verse
Though like the wanderer (in articulo mortis, caelitus mihi vires)
The sun gone down (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum)
Darkness be over me (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
My rest a stone (sic itur ad astra, excelsior)
chorus
(Excelsior, excelsior, excelsior)
(Excelsior) angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
Nearer to Thee (sic itur ad astra, excelsior)
bridge
(Excelsior, excelsior, excelsior)
(Excelsior, excelsior, excelsior)
Ooh (excelsior, excelsior)
outro
Or if on joyful wing (in articulo mortis, caelitus mihi vires)
Cleaving the sky (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum)
Sun, moon and stars forgot (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
Upward I (sic itur ad astra, excelsior)
Fly (dirige nos, Domine, ad augusta per angusta)
(Sic itur ad astra) excelsior
Writer(s): Chris Hazell, Lowell Mason, Sarah Adams
