Nearer My God to Thee - Jo Stafford and Gordon MacRae, Jo Stafford, Gordon MacRae

In articulo mortis

Caelitus mihi vires

Nearer my God to Thee

Nearer to Thee

E’en though it be a cross

That raiseth me

There let the way appear

Steps unto heaven

All that Thou sendest me

In mercy given

Still all my song shall be

Nearer my God to Thee

Nearer my God to Thee

Nearer to Thee

Though like the wanderer

The sun gone down

Darkness be over me

My rest a stone

Angels to beckon me

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 fly

Excelsior!

Nearer my God to Thee

Steps unto heaven

All that Thou sendest me

In mercy given
