 Near..—-er  ..  my    God   ..   to     Thee   ..  near..——er  ..   to     Thee.
  -4,       -3,      3        3,         2         2,          -1,        3,      -4       -3.       

 E’en   ..   though  ..   it       be ..   a     cross ..  that    rais..—eth     me.
  -4,            -3,          3        3,      2        2,       -1   3   -2*,   -3       3.

 Near..—-er  ..  my   ..   God  .. to    Thee  ..  near..——er  ..   to    Thee.
  -4,       -3,      3,           3,      2        2,       -1    3     -2*,    -3       3.


 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

 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

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

Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee

No!
It is too much!
My miracles have all been very small, and my sins very large!! ;D

I find this music brings a tear to my eye, I could be that recently a long life family friend of ours who is only 30 years old has just been told he has a cancerous brain tumor and nothing can be done sadly or if it is the music. Maybe a few of you could play it and see if has the same effect? What a brilliant piece of music.
