Текст песни Nearer, My God, to Thee (BYU Vocal Point) с переводом

In articulo mortis

Caelitus

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;

Excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior

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;

Excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior

Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee

Nearer, my God to Thee, nearer to Thee

Excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior excelsior

Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky

Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly

Excelsior!
