Ever I’m striving to be Nearer, yet nearer to thee!
Trusting, in thee I confide; Hoping, in thee I abide.

Take, oh, take, and cherish me,
Nearer, dear Savior, to thee.

Humbly I come to thee now; Earnest, I prayerfully bow.
Chorus

Loving thee, ever I pray, Aid me thy will to obey.
Chorus
4. Nearer, dear Savior, to thee, Nearer, nearer to thee -
Let me by holiness be Nearer, yet nearer to thee!
When all my trials are done, When my reward I have won,
