¶Liedtext

One sweetly solemn thought Comes to me o’er and o’er; Nearer my home today am I Than e’er I’ve been before. Nearer my Father’s house, Where many mansions be; Nearer today, the great white throne, Nearer the crystal sea. Nearer the bounds of life Where we lay our burdens down; Nearer leaving the cross, Nearer gaining the crown. But lying darkly between, Winding a-down thro' the night, Is the silent unknown stream That leads at last to the light. Father be near when my feet Are slipping o'er the brink, For it may be I am nearer home, Nearer now than I think.
