Текст песни Nearer to Thee - Sam Cooke

Nearer to Thee

The minister was preaching\nAnd the crowd was standing near\nThe congregation was singing a tune\nIn a voice that was loud and clear\nYou know the crowd that stood around him\nThey were crying, I could plainly see\nFor the song that they sang was touching\nThey were singing 'Nearer My God To Thee'\nO, nearer my God to Thee, nearer, nearer to Thee\nWe kept on singing, nearer my God, nearer my God to Thee\nOh Lord, we kept on singing nearer\nNearer my God, nearer, nearer to Thee\nThey kept on singing, nearer my, my God, nearer my God to Thee\nOh yes, nearer, nearer\nSongs have a feeling\nThere’s a story in every song we sing\nSongs that are known to lift heavy burdens\nIf all of our troubles, to God we oughta bring\nAnd if we are Christians we ought not to be ashamed\nTo lift our voices, admire Jesus' name\nWe ought to be able to sing, nearer, nearer my God to Thee\nOh help me Lord, lift our voices and sing, nearer, nearer, nearer yes\nNearer, I want to get nearer to Thee\nWhen I get lonely I can sing, nearer\nNearer my God to Thee, yes I can\nI just bow down and say nearer and nearer, nearer\nNearer my God to Thee, nearer, nearer my God to Thee
