Nearer, My God, to Thee (My Heart's Desire) (Dawn)

[Verse] Nearer my God to Thee I long to be In every prayer I plead my soul set free With every step I take I seek Your face Unto Your love I cling Your saving grace [Verse 2] Though trials heavy fall and shadows grow I'll lift my eyes to You my faith won't slow When storms surround my heart You are my guide With every breath I take You're by my side [Chorus] My heart's desire O Lord is close to You In joy and sorrow seek what's good and true With hands held high I sing Your name divine Nearer my God to Thee my light eternal shine [Verse 3] In silent nights I dream of holy peace Where burdens fade away and worries cease Your whispers in the winds I clearly hear Calling me gently so Your presence near [Bridge] Though mountains high or valleys deep below I'll journey ever on Your love I know Your arms they lift me up when I am weak In every moment's breath Your strength I seek [Chorus] My heart's desire O Lord is close to You In joy and sorrow seek what's good and true With hands held high I sing Your name divine Nearer my God to Thee my light eternal shine
