Nearer, my God, to Thee
Author: Sarah F. Adams Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,555 hymnals Lyrics:
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee,
E'en though it be a cross
That raiseth me;
Still all my song would be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.
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 to Thee.
There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven;
All that Thou sendest me
In mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
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 to Thee.
Or if on joyful wing,
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee.
Amen.

Más cerca, ¡oh Dios! de Ti
Author: Vicente Mendoza, 1875-1955; Sarah Flower de Adams, 1805-1848 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Más cerca ¡oh Dios!, de Ti
Yo quiero estar,
Aunque sobre una cruz
Me haya de alzar;
Mi canto aún así
Constante habrá de ser:
Más cerca, ¡oh Dios!, de Ti,
Más cerca sí.
2 Si caminando voy,
Y de ansiedad
Me lleno al presentir
La oscuridad,
Aún mi sueño así
Me mostrará que estoy
Más cerca, ¡oh Dios!, de Ti,
Más cerca sí.
3 Que encuentre senda aquí
Que al cielo va,
Y en ella tu bondad
Me sostendrá;
Y ángeles habrá
Que me conducirán
Más cerca, ¡oh Dios!, de Ti,
Más cerca sí.
4 Después, al despertar
Te elevaré
Un nuevo y santo altar
De gratitud:
Así mis penas mil
Me harán sentir que estoy
Más cerca, ¡oh Dios!, de Ti
Más cerca, sí.
5 Si en vuelo celestial
Al cielo voy,
Y sol y luna atrás
Dejando estoy,
Alegre entonaré
Mi canto sin igual:
Más cerca, ¡oh Dios!, de Ti,
Más cerca sí.

Du, som af kärlek varm
Author: S. D. Phelps Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #S10 (1913) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Du som, af kärlek varm,
Blödde för mig,
Drag mig för hvarje dag
Närmare dig!
Fyll du mitt hjärta så,
Att jag af kärlek må
Offra med fröhd också
Något för dig!
2 Du, som i himlens j¨hd
Beder för mig,
Som, om än svag, ser upp,
Herre, till dig!
Gif, att jag korset bär,
Nöjd med hvad du beskär,
Att jag må vittna här
Något om dig!
3 Bo med din Andes kraft,
Herre, i mig,
Att jag må hvarje stund
Lefva för dig.
Helande hjärtesår,
Sökande vilsna får,
Görande, hvar jag går,
Något för dig!
4 Allt, hvad jag är och har,
Skänkte du mig;
Hjälp mig det helga gladt,
Herre, åt dig!
Och, när förutan brist
Dig jag får se til sist,
Blifve du, Herre Krist,
Allting för mig!

Joseph Barnby
1838 - 1896 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Composer of "WINTERTON" in The Hymnal Joseph Barnby (b. York, England, 1838; d. London, England, 1896) An accomplished and popular choral director in England, Barnby showed his musical genius early: he was an organist and choirmaster at the age of twelve. He became organist at St. Andrews, Wells Street, London, where he developed an outstanding choral program (at times nicknamed "the Sunday Opera"). Barnby introduced annual performances of J. S. Bach's St. John Passion in St. Anne's, Soho, and directed the first performance in an English church of the St. Matthew Passion. He was also active in regional music festivals, conducted the Royal Choral Society, and composed and edited music (mainly for Novello and Company). In 1892 he was knighted by Queen Victoria. His compositions include many anthems and service music for the Anglican liturgy, as well as 246 hymn tunes (published posthumously in 1897). He edited four hymnals, including The Hymnary (1872) and The Congregational Sunday School Hymnal (1891), and coedited The Cathedral Psalter (1873).

1875 - 1955 Person Name: Vicente Mendoza, 1875-1955 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Translator of "Más cerca, ¡oh Dios! de Ti" in Culto Cristiano Vicente Mendoza Born: December 24, 1875, Guadalajara, Mexico. Died: 1955, Mexico City, Mexico. Mendoza studied initially under Don Aurelio Ortega. At age of 11 he went to work in a Protestant print shop in Mexico City and helped produce El Evangelista Mexicano (The Mexican Evangelist) for the Methodist Church of the South; he rose to become its director for 17 years. Looking to improve himself, Mendoza entered a night school for workers, but later feeling the call to preach the Gospel, he entered the Presbyterian Seminary in Mexico City. When the seminary closed temporarily, Mendoza entered the Methodist Institute of Puebla, where he finished the course in theology. In 1898 he became a member of the Annual Conference of the Mexican Methodist Church. From 1915 to 1917, he belonged to the Southern Methodist Conference of California. Mendoza worked on several periodicals, including El Mundo Cristiano (The Christian World), El Abogado Cristiano (The Christian Advocate), and El Evangelista Cristiano (The Christian Evangelist).

W. Howard Doane
1832 - 1915 Person Name: W. H. Doane (1832-1916) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Composer of "[More love to Thee, O Christ!]" in The Church Hymnal An industrialist and philanthropist, William H. Doane (b. Preston, CT, 1832; d. South Orange, NJ, 1915), was also a staunch supporter of evangelistic campaigns and a prolific writer of hymn tunes. He was head of a large woodworking machinery plant in Cincinnati and a civic leader in that city. He showed his devotion to the church by supporting the work of the evangelistic team of Dwight L. Moody and Ira D. Sankey and by endowing Moody Bible Institute in Chicago and Denison University in Granville, Ohio. An amateur composer, Doane wrote over twenty-two hundred hymn and gospel song tunes, and he edited over forty songbooks.
Bert Polman
============
Doane, William Howard, p. 304, he was born Feb. 3, 1832. His first Sunday School hymn-book was Sabbath Gems published in 1861. He has composed about 1000 tunes, songs, anthems, &c. He has written but few hymns. Of these "No one knows but Jesus," "Precious Saviour, dearest Friend," and "Saviour, like a bird to Thee," are noted in Burrage's Baptist Hymn Writers. 1888, p. 557.
--John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
===================
Doane, W. H. (William Howard), born in Preston, Connecticut, 1831, and educated for the musical profession by eminent American and German masters. He has had for years the superintendence of a large Baptist Sunday School in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he resides. Although not a hymnwriter, the wonderful success which has attended his musical setting of numerous American hymns, and the number of his musical editions of hymnbooks for Sunday Schools and evangelistic purposes, bring him within the sphere of hymnological literature. Amongst his collections we have:—
(1) Silver Spray, 1868; (2) Pure Gold, 1877; (3) Royal Diadem, 1873; (4) Welcome Tidings, 1877; (5) Brightest and Best, 1875; (6) Fountain of Song; (7) Songs of Devotion, 1870; (8) Temple Anthems, &c.
His most popular melodies include "Near the Cross," "Safe in the Arms of Jesus," "Pass me Not," "More Love to Thee," "Rescue the Perishing," "Tell me the Old, Old Story," &c.

History
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions.
About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
Mobile App
