EN 3047 Nearer the Cross

Matt.16.24

Versi Version 1

1

“Nearer the cross!” my heart can say

I am coming nearer,

Nearer the cross from day to day,

I am coming nearer;

Nearer the cross where Jesus died,

Nearer the fountain’s crimson tide,

Nearer my Savior’s wounded side,

I am coming nearer, I am coming nearer.

2

Nearer the Christian’s mercy seat,

I am coming nearer;

Feasting my soul on manna sweet

I am coming nearer;

Stronger in faith, more clear I see

Jesus Who gave Himself for me;

Nearer to Him I still would be,

Still I’m coming nearer

Still I’m coming nearer.

3

Nearer in prayer my hope aspires,

I am coming nearer;

Deeper the love my soul desires,

I am coming nearer;

Nearer the end of toil and care,

Nearer the joy I long to share,

Nearer the crown I soon shall wear;

I am coming nearer;

I am coming nearer.
