Nearer, My God, to Thee
In articulo mortis (At the moment of death)
Caelitus mihi vires (My strength is from heaven)
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me
There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy giv’n
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee
Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone
Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee. Nearer, to Thee
In articulo mortis (At the moment of death)
Caelitus mihi vires (My strength is from heaven)
Deo adjuvante non timendum (God helping, nothing should be feared)
In perpetuum (For ever)
Dirige nos domine (Direct us, O Lord)
Ad augusta per angusta (To high places by narrow roads)
Sic itur ad astra (Such is the path to the stars)
Excelsior (Ever upward)
