Closer to Thee

Author: E. H. Long Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #11 (1885) Topics: Growth in Grace First Line: Draw me, Saviour, nearer Lyrics: 1 Draw me, Saviour, nearer, Nearer and nearer to Thee; Let me see still clearer, All Thy love for me. Freed from self, and wholly Thine, Let me in Thy beauty shine; While I sing, O may I be Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee. 2 As the eagles soaring, Higher and higher ascend, Thus, while Thee adoring, Upward I would tend. Far from earth and sin away, Nearer heaven’s perfect day; Even now, O, may I be Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee. 3 As the river flowing Daily draws nearer the sea, Thus may I keep going, Till I’m lost in Thee. E’er advance and grow in grace, Till I see Thee face to face; Then I’ll sing eternally, Drawn still closer, closer to Thee, Closer, closer, closer to Thee.

How blest are they whose trespass

Hymnal: The Book of Praise #17 (1997) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Growth in Faith Lyrics: 1 How blest are they whose trespass has freely been forgiven, whose sins are wholly covered before the sight of heaven. Blest they to whom the Lord God does not impute their sin, who have a guileless spirit, whose heart is true within. 2 While I kept guilty silence, my strength was spent with grief, your hand was heavy on me, my soul found no relief; but when I owned my trespass and did not hide my sin, then you forgave my guilt, Lord, restored my life within. 3 So let the godly seek you in times when you are near; no whelming floods shall reach them, or cause their hearts to fear; O Lord, you are my refuge, you are my hiding place, and you surround me always with songs of saving grace. 4 I graciously will teach you the way that you should go, and, with my eye upon you, help you my counsel know. Then do not be unruly or slow to understand; be not perverse, but willing to heed my wise command. 5 The sorrows of the wicked increase from year to year, but those who trust the Lord God know love instead of fear. Then in the Lord be joyful: in song lift up your voice; be glad in God, you righteous: rejoice, O saints, rejoice! Scripture: Psalm 32 Languages: English Tune Title: GOSTERWOOD

One Day Nearer Home

Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #20 (1885) Topics: Growth in Grace First Line: O'er the hills the sun is setting Refrain First Line: Nearer, nearer Lyrics: 1 O’er the hills the sun is setting, And the eve is drawing on; Slowly drops the gentle twilight, For another day is gone. Gone for aye—its race is over; Soon the darker shades will come; Still ‘tis sweet to know at evening That we’re one day nearer home. Chorus: Nearer, nearer, One day nearer home; Nearer, nearer, One day nearer home. 2 Worn and weary, oft the pilgrim Hails the setting of the sun, For the goal is one day nearer, And his journey nearly done; Thus we feel when o’er the life’s desert Heart and sandal-sore we roam; As the twilight gathers o’er us, We are one day nearer home. [Chorus] 3 Nearer home! yes, one day nearer To our Father’s house on high, To the green fields and the fountains Of the land beyond the sky; For the heavens grow brighter o’er us, And the lamps hand in the dome, And our tents are pitched still closer, For we’re one day nearer home. [Chorus] 4 “One day nearer,” sings the mar’ner, As he glides the water o’er, While the light is softly dying On his distant native shore; Thus the Christian on life’s ocean, As his life-boat cuts the foam, In the evening cries with rapture, “I am one day nearer home.” [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [O'er the hills the sun is setting]
