Author: Sarah (Flower) Adams Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,619 hymnals Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification First Line: Nearer, my God, to Thee! Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee! Nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me, Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 2 Though, like a 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! 3 Then let my way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me, In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 4 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! 5 Or if on joyful wing Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upward I fly; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! Amen. Scripture: Genesis 28:11-17 Used With Tune: BETHANY

Lyrics: 1 Naught have I gotten but what I received; Grace hath bestowed it since I have believed; Boasting excluded, pride I abase; I’m only a sinner, saved by grace! Refrain: Only a sinner saved by grace! Only a sinner saved by grace! This is my story, to God be the glory—- I’m only a sinner saved by grace! 2 Once I was foolish, and sin ruled my heart, Causing my footsteps from God to depart; Jesus hath found me, happy my case; I now am a sinner, saved by grace! (Refrain) 3 Tears unavailing, no merit had I; Mercy had saved me, or else I must die; Sin had alarmed me, fearing God’s face; But now I’m a sinner saved by grace! (Refrain) 4 Suffer a sinner whose heart overflows, Loving his Saviour to tell what he knows; Once more to tell it would I embrace-- I’m only a sinner saved by grace! (Refrain) Used With Tune: [Naught have I gotten but what I received]
