I had this played at my husbands funeral 3rd September 2021 he died from Alzheimers. I miss him terribly.I play this when visiting his grave and feel closer to him somehow ..We were together over 52 years.
Just imagine the person who raised you (not ur parent) died shortly after your graduation when you were just entering the job market. My brother Samson rested 11yrs ago. He slept after holding my hand and blessing me. This song was sang during his burial in that lent season. Greetings from Uganda
My. Brother. Stay. Strong. He has pulled me. Out of. Alot of. Low,s and I mean. Low,s. He is. Good to me. And. Sometimes I may think he. Doesn't. Care. But. When I. Just. Look. Around and see his. Hand in everything. I. Know he is. Watching over me. He gave me a. Brain to use. And sometimes I forget. About. Free will. In the. End. It is I. Who needs to. Move. Brother. Fairchild
I am going to play this at my wife’s funeral, she was taken from my very suddenly on 5th April 2024, we were very happily married for over 63 1/2 years the only one. I miss her very much and her funeral is being held on 9th May 2024 bye bye my darling see you again sometime
I cherish this song as my Sweetheart was recently raised up to Heaven? Now I know that I am next to walk up the stairways to Heaven! With my darlings picture on the wall facing my bed, I cry every night while praying to Jesus to take good care of her until I get there! We had a wonderful 62 years together!lk
Peter, we're so sorry for your loss. We know comfort and healing can come through prayer and by relying on Jesus Christ at this difficult time. He loves you and can mend your heart and give you peace. www.comeuntochrist.org/beliefs/purpose-of-life/4-ways-to-cope-with-the-loss-of-a-loved-one?lang=eng?cid=42001274
Dear Gourav, May you be cheered that God has now called me to serve Him full time in the prison ministry. Thank you for tearful prayers and stay blessed.
Thank you my God for not letting me go. In those darkest moments when i did not even remember you. But my remaining days will be lived not in vain. Teach me to be nearer to Thee!
A new, spiritual realm in meditation brings us closer to the realm of God alone, through the Holy Spirit. It lifts us up with new determination and courage.
The song was my spiritual anthem during my time in prison and still is in times of trouble. After all problems bring us close to God. May all men in the world come to worship God our Lord and sing: Hallelujah!
Lyrics 1. Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee! E’en though it be a cross That raiseth me. Still all my song shall be Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee! 2. Though like the wanderer, The sun gone down, Darkness be over me, My rest a stone, Yet in my dreams I’d be Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee! 3. There let the way appear, Steps unto heav’n; All that thou sendest me, In mercy giv’n; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer to thee! 4. Then with my waking thoughts Bright with thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee! 5. Or if, on joyful wing Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upward I fly, Still all my song shall be Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer to thee!
We played this wonderful music on the funeral of my father yesterday in The Netherlands. Thank you so much for making this. This music makes me feel so close to my father.
God bless you and comfort you my sister. May you rejoice in the sweet memory of your father's love every time you hear this song until you are reunited.
I always think of my grandma who has dementia and it gets worse when she says she wants to take her life at night. Every time i play this on my violin i feel at peace i Absolutely love this church hymn i love the church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints.
Thanks for your comment, @judithedwards3395. We're glad to hear the music is inspiring and helps turn your thoughts to God. You can listen to more music by the Tabernacle Choir, including a free weekly program each Sunday, at www.thetabernaclechoir.org/ You can also find a selection of music on Spotify under “The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square.”
Every time I hear this hymn, I cry. I'm reminded of all my faults and how short I've come in life. This hymn renews my will to do better, to have the Christ-like spirit and to be forever thankful for Jesus' sacrifice. I hope those looking for God finds Him; you will experience peace so magnificent.
Ingrid O'Reilly I feel the same way and all I do is cry about how short I have come with my life too. I just feel I haven't done as well or as much for humanity as I could have. You see I don't believe anyone's life is worth it unless you've done as much as possible for others. I think I have fallen short too.
It's rather equal which religion we have, but this song has no borders for each of us. I'm catholic, living in Germany and played this song on my saxophone as my mother died, 600 km away from me, I just had to play it an at the same moment I knew, she was leaving us, away from pain, but I had to accompany her with my music and so we shared moments as mother and daughter, moments that we never had before. It was a great honour to share these moments with my big Mom, moments of peace, showing into the light, forgive and forget all those horrible things done to us. Mamma, ik vergeet je niet en je bent altijd bij me. Jouw Ireentje
I am so sorry to hear of your loss Irene...but I am sure, at those few last moments, she was feeling your music and at peace. My Dad passed away about 8 yrs ago and I still struggle with it daily and I still think of him daily...it is hard when you lose a parent but I bet your Mom felt this song as she went to be in Heaven and that you will one day see her again. God Bless You!!
I also struggled with the passing of my mother, it was replaced with hope after six long years of blaming my Creator. It would only be after a missionary spoke to me with such conviction in his voice. I felt the Spirit of God testify to my heart that all of us were created by Him and continuity in that journey is dependent on our obedience to His commandments. I truly think you created a bond to remind you of all the joys your mother brought from that single moment. One that extends from birth until her passing, not many persons have that opportunity. God bless you and keep you.
trevylove You are right, just in this moment as my Mom passed away, 49 years were reflected in this moment, the luck and fun we had together as also my deepest thankfulness to her as my dearest Mom...
+Irene Kern please dont be sad irene, our heavenly father is so much more loving than we can comprehend! Please watch this young mans story, he knew he would see his family again, I know you can see your mom again too.... Families can be together forever Please lmk if u need anything, honestly, please do... Just msg. Me... Youre never alone m.th-cam.com/video/HYRb4DNf8wc/w-d-xo.html
As a pastor of a new and a small congregation we sing this beautiful hymn together some of our dearest member passed away for their heavenly abode... We are nearer than ever to our Lord's coming. God bless you Church. Praise the Lord!
This song is when Jacob ran away from his brother thinking that all is lost but God is faithful he blessed him and changed his name to Israel it gives hope that I'm sinner.but my God will bring me near to him o Lord God almighty bring Betwell near to you my God this is my song and my prayer near my God to you please keep praying for my son Betwell may the Lord Jesus christ bless you all Amen I'm a poor woman who need you prayer in my life Amen
am muslem but i love this song. it is very spiritual. thank you. i discover him to movie of titanic. i don't calculate the number of time that i cry when i listen. thank you. God bless us and give the good life for us. am in africa.
This hymn was playing in my mind the night my Mother went to be with Jesus and the Lord. She passed into heaven on 03-16-2016 at 6:10 PM. The first verse was playing in my mind all night along like God was telling me everything would be fine. Thank you for the wonderful singing.
I know your Mother is in heaven with my little girl, she went home at 7 years old but was always loving and did for others all her short 7 years, we all love April. Have a good Day.
The most beautiful hymn of all. I played this a hundred times when my Mother had a stroke. In her state of unconsciousness, she responded to this song. This song will always let me cry. my Mother died 6the June 1996 and it feels like just a day ago. Thanks for this beautiful song. I love the Morman Church!
I think, for me, it would be something that has to play every single day. "In all my dreams I'll be, nearer my God to Thee". It is a constant desire and journey to the Maker that makes this song meaningful. And yes, when that time arrives, "angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee" will end the long journey.
***** Its verses seem to fit to the journey there, as well as the conclusion, and even the everyday events factor in as well: 1." Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"
"2. Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 3. There let the way appear, steps unto heaven; all that thou sendest me, in mercy given; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"
dieselheart001 4. "Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 5. Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"
dieselheart001 This song was my maternal grandmother's favorite hymn. It described her faith in God and gave her comfort when times were difficult, and sustained her hope in everlasting life through the ransom sacrifice of her Savior Christ Jesus. Even to this day I can hear her singing this to me, as if I were still a little boy, and I find peace. It is my hope I will see her in the Resurrection.
Not this version though. The one played on titanic was the "Propior Deo" version. They are similar, wich is why the survivors of titanic probably still recognised it.
And to think that these fine young men have served their missions and are now out in the world, hopefully still being great examples for the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints.
This was one of my grandma's favorite hymns. She recently passed from COVID. When I hear this song now, it brings me joy to think about her and I pray she is nearer our creator.
I agree. I've come back to see and hear this, so many, many times. I'd love to hear this choir do "His Eye Is on the Sparrow". It will take some expertise to direct them, but it can be a satisfying experience.
This is the Tabernacle Choir they are I bwleive the largest choir. The are from The Churvh of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints!! They have wonderful songs!
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me; Still all my song would 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; Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! There let the way appear steps unto heav’n; All that Thou sendest me in mercy giv’n; Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Then with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise; So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
A soothing song I have lost my dearest wife and daughter lhis year. I find solace in this enchanting song I firmly believe in my Lords promise that He is the ressure tion and life. May Lord Jesus bless all those behind this wonderful song
As a Catholic. I greatly appreciate and joy your hymns. I always listen to it every Sunday morning when I wake up straight from bed preparing for church service 🎉. It often puts peace in my heart ❤️ 💙. I love the hymn.
Thanks for your comment, @GerardHianjuku. We are so glad to hear that the choir's music brings you peace and helps you to prepare for your church services.
My son's close friend (both boys aged 12 at the time) was murdered by his stepfather 25 years ago. I was thinking of this song as it was played at his funeral. Also I remember it on one of the titanic films. It's a fab hymn.
Less Active -Our Holy Father understands your challenges & knows your heart! He is not a tyrant... God has mercy, for all those that strive their best, in Faith!
During this pandemic let us remember those who suffer but cling to their Savior at this time. May The Lord Jesus Christ and Out Heavenly Father richly bless you all with all spiritual blessings to impart at this time.
Magnificient! I greatly appreciate the love and devotion Mormons have for God. I cannot tell you how greatly their love for one another has impacted my life. I listen to Mormon conferences on cable and record them. Powerfully impacting. This past week I listened to Elder Craig Zwick and his lovely wife. What struck me most powerfully is the depth of love that exudes from him to his wife. We just don't see that level of love between most couples. Thank you for your witness of love to the world.
I'm a LDS and I've learned in Church to love ALL my brothers and sisters no matter their faith! Thank you for your comments! Above all, I love my Father in heaven and want always to be nearer Him!
I am not a religious person by nature but I can still appreciate the sentiment in the hymn and the beliefs of others. I can also appreciate the talent of this wonderful choir and it’s fantastic rendition of a moving piece.
I shed tears each time I hear this song of my brothers. I guess, after I arrive in Heaven, it is this kind of feeling that makes my scalp numb and want to cry, Right? Right! My Lord! How nice! ! May God bless every one here in 2021-2022! Hallelujah!
this music helps me remember jesus and god . now when it's COVID 19 i havven't been able ot go to church and things have went bad i started swearing again but this reminds me of him
A very beautiful hymn which gives me a goosebumps inside my heart too and tears come as the same time I remember my First Wife who died some weeks ago. I hope a day we will be together near the Lord.
I Love this Choir, my Father { † } was an Organist and directed a Mixed Choir he often gave Organ Concerts, I Like this religious Atmosphere. May God Bless us All in these Difficult Times.. I Have a thought for the Ukrainian People currently at War ! ✨ ❤️ .. ✨ ❤️ .. ✨❤️
Ich unterstütze die Ukrainer, meine Urgroßeltern erlitten 2 Weltkriege, als ich jung war, erklärten sie mir das Unglück und den Hass der vielen Todesfälle auf der ganzen Welt durch diesen verrückten Hitler, heute haben wir einen Doppelgänger in Form dieses verrückten Wladimir Putin dieser wahnsinnige Zar. Was können wir tun ? NICHTS ! Danke für deinen Kommentar. ✨❤️ .. ✨❤️ .. ✨❤️ * I support the Ukrainians, my great-grandparents suffered 2 world wars, when I was young they explained to me the misfortunes and hatred of the many deaths around the world by this madman Hitler, today we have a Doppelganger in the form of this crazy Vladimir Putin this Delirious Tsar. What can we do ? NOTHING ! Thank you for your comment.✨❤️ ..✨❤️ .. ✨❤️
Mark, I was a Smoke Jumper in Alaska. lots of unsettling experiences. This song became my Anchor! I know just what you describe. It is nice to know God is with his children constantly. All we have to do is open our heart to him!
wow I'm not lds but that doesn't stop me from loving this choir. I've been listening to their songs for the past couple of hours. absolutely heavenly. I would love to be a church organist one day, and fill our empty churches here in England with music again 🇬🇧
Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
I every time I hear this song, I think of RMS Titanic breaking and slipping beneath the waves and all those aboard her. Rest In Peace to the 1,496 lives lost on April 15th, 1912.
A beautiful hymn, but this amazing arrangement opens it to the heavens. Love love love to hear all these male voices. Aren’t we so blessed to have this precious, priceless gift of music from our Heavenly Father? It speaks to us of the love He has for us.
There is a proverb in German: Wo man singt, da lass dich ruhig nieder; böse Menschen haben keine Lieder. (Where they sing, there you should settle and live; evil persons don't have songs.) Music = humanity.
I dedicated this gorgeous song to all the beloved souls that lost their lives on the Titanic on April 15, 1912. May they regoice in the LORD Jesus Christ and be embraced by God. And have eternal glory. ❤
I had this played at my husbands funeral 3rd September 2021 he died from Alzheimers. I miss him terribly.I play this when visiting his grave and feel closer to him somehow ..We were together over 52 years.

Lyrics
1. Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
E’en though it be a cross
That raiseth me.
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
2. Though like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone,
Yet in my dreams I’d be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
3. There let the way appear,
Steps unto heav’n;
All that thou sendest me,
In mercy giv’n;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee
Nearer to thee!
4. Then with my waking thoughts
Bright with thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
5. Or if, on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upward I fly,
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!

The most beautiful hymn of all. I played this a hundred times when my Mother had a stroke. In her state of unconsciousness, she responded to this song. This song will always let me cry. my Mother died 6the June 1996 and it feels like just a day ago. Thanks for this beautiful song. I love the Morman Church!
Thank you for sharing, @williemoller5630. We hope you can find peace and joy this Christmas season.
@@churchofjesuschrist Thank you
I had this song for my husband's funeral. It makes me sad when I hear it, but I know my husband is near God now in peace!
Wouldn't you love this to play as you make your final journey to meet the "Maker"?
I think, for me, it would be something that has to play every single day.
"In all my dreams I'll be, nearer my God to Thee". It is a constant desire and
journey to the Maker that makes this song meaningful. And yes, when that time
arrives, "angels to beckon me, nearer my God to Thee" will end the long journey.
*****
Its verses seem to fit to the journey there, as well as the conclusion, and even the everyday events factor in as well:
1." Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"
"2. Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone; yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 3. There let the way appear, steps unto heaven; all that thou sendest me, in mercy given; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"
dieselheart001 4. "Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! 5. Or if, on joyful wing cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee; nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee!"

This song was my maternal grandmother's favorite hymn. It described her faith in God and gave her comfort when times were difficult, and sustained her hope in everlasting life through the ransom sacrifice of her Savior Christ Jesus. Even to this day I can hear her singing this to me, as if I were still a little boy, and I find peace. It is my hope I will see her in the Resurrection.
April, 1912, this hymn was the last music heard by victims of the RMS Titanic as the ship's band remained together and played.
Is that true??? Did they really play this song???
+Gian Distefano Yes, it really happened, they even portrayed it in the movie. :-)
Not this version though. The one played on titanic was the "Propior Deo" version. They are similar, wich is why the survivors of titanic probably still recognised it.
Yes, that was the final song the band played before they went down with the R.M.S Titanic.
14-15 April 1912,Titanic sank,1,906 died and 712 survived
Hearing this angelic voices, lift my heart to my Creator!
Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight.
The Titanic 😢
Even up to the very last, British are still gentlemen from the movie "Titanic."
What a comforting song in these hard and difficult times!💔
En de tijd was niet meer
Great hymn for the pilgrins
And to think that these fine young men have served their missions and are now out in the world, hopefully still being great examples for the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints.
Hurry up hurry
I’m waiting
This was one of my grandma's favorite hymns. She recently passed from COVID. When I hear this song now, it brings me joy to think about her and I pray she is nearer our creator.
Another one of my dad's favorite hymns. I van hear him play it powerfully on the organ. RIP dad.
My husband and I always pray together before going to bed and then listen to this hymn. It's just beautiful
That is inspirational, what a blessing.
I chose this beautiful song to be sung at my son's funeral a few weeks ago. Such a loving beautiful song. I am LDS and am...proud of it
Sorry for your loss. There is nothing worse than losing one of your children.
A beautiful hymn for your son. Be well.
A beautiful tribute to your son. He's always there for you, until you meet again.
Thank all of you
God be with you and with your son's spirit.
This is sung really beautifully, this choir is so skilled in its rendition of this fantastic hymn to God's glory and praise !!!!!!!!!
Prachtig
I agree. I've come back to see and hear this, so many, many times. I'd love to hear this choir do "His Eye Is on the Sparrow". It will take some expertise to direct them, but it can be a satisfying experience.
This is the Tabernacle Choir they are I bwleive the largest choir. The are from The Churvh of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints!! They have wonderful songs!
@@sammysweetiepie3519 Not the Tabernacle Choir, but rather the YSA (Young Single Adult) Priesthood Choir from the Salt Lake area.
Lord in this dark period of my country's history draw us nearer to you and forgive our sins. In Jesus name I pray. Love from Nigeria
I pray for my fellow Christians in that land everyday,....
@@sherp2u1 Amen, peace and love from the UK, God bless you all
God bless you.
I am listening to this beautiful song during a time of loneliness
I realized I am a child of God as this beautiful song reminds me so
This is one of the few songs in which you can feel sad, and yet unbelievably happy simultaneously!
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me;
Still all my song would 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;
Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
There let the way appear steps unto heav’n;
All that Thou sendest me in mercy giv’n;
Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
Then with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
Maravilhosos
Its very good ti feel the goodness ofJezus
Grace Roseliny I love you
Thank you
I love all the songs
This is beyond magical, Jesus All the Way
Listening to this song makes me think about life we will live in heaven, worshipping our heavenly father.
How beautiful heaven will be, when all saints shall be singing hossana.
A soothing song I have lost my dearest wife and daughter lhis year. I find solace in this enchanting song I firmly believe in my Lords promise that He is the ressure tion and life. May Lord Jesus bless all those behind this wonderful song
Mathew, I am sorry for your loss and will remember you tonight in my prayers before bed,
I hope you continue to find solace 1+ years on from such heartbreak. I firmly believe in the same promise from our shared Lord. God bless!
These hymns always puts my trouble soul at peace.
It is wonderous that our souls won't be comfortable except nearer to him!!!!
"... our hearts are restless till they find rest in Thee." - St. Augustine of Hippo
Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight - Titanic quote from when this song was playing by the band.
Absolutely ethereal. God bless them.
You can see the serenity on their faces. All of them are so much at peace with themselves.
dont judge by appearances.
Rest in peace Wallace Hartley and the band of RMS TITANIC 🙏
每次听见弟兄这大合唱,就有哭的感觉,大概到了天堂后,就是这种令人头皮发麻的感觉吧? 我的主!真好!!愿主祝福这里每一位! 哈雷路亚!
The Peace, the Joy, the Hope and the Longings when this hymn is played.
YES!! Blessed are we who have repented and follow JESUS. AMEN. 🕊🎁💝
Reading the scriptures every day will make you happy and close to the Savior
Really? Because the Old Testament is filled with violence. Maybe stick to the Gospels.
Please pray for me.. thanks for the encouraging words.
As a Catholic. I greatly appreciate and joy your hymns. I always listen to it every Sunday morning when I wake up straight from bed preparing for church service 🎉. It often puts peace in my heart ❤️ 💙. I love the hymn.
Thanks for your comment, @GerardHianjuku. We are so glad to hear that the choir's music brings you peace and helps you to prepare for your church services.
Love. Love. Love.
I love God so much.
This one is nothing compared to the better one type in the song and the first one u see click on it it's so amazing I promise
Unknown Username the king of love my Shepard i
I feel very humble reading your comment Submitter. Thanks.
And so do I. Some blessed people never thank God.
My son's close friend (both boys aged 12 at the time) was murdered by his stepfather 25 years ago.
I was thinking of this song as it was played at his funeral. Also I remember it on one of the titanic
films. It's a fab hymn.
제가 주님을 잊어도 저에게 떠나지 마옵 소서 긍율히 여겨 주시옵소서

Jesus say: and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away. John 6:37
I'm not bounded in one church but I'm a Christian, I believe in Jesus Christ, and this song is beyond Amazing 🙏
We are part of the Church, the body of Christ. Awaiting the day we will all be together praising in perfection!
As a less active member, I listen to this regularly to remind myself of my faith. Beautiful hymn that sends shivers to my back.
Historia canción Nearer MY GOD TO THEE
I hope that you've made your way back with the help of this beautiful hymn.
Less Active -Our Holy Father understands your challenges & knows your heart! He is not a tyrant... God has mercy, for all those that strive their best, in Faith!
Anybody in tears listening to this I' am it's simply beautiful and for sure it's for our time.
During this pandemic let us remember those who suffer but cling to their Savior at this time. May The Lord Jesus Christ and Out Heavenly Father richly bless you all with all spiritual blessings to impart at this time.
Magnificient! I greatly appreciate the love and devotion Mormons have for God. I cannot tell you how greatly their love for one another has impacted my life. I listen to Mormon conferences on cable and record them. Powerfully impacting. This past week I listened to Elder Craig Zwick and his lovely wife. What struck me most powerfully is the depth of love that exudes from him to his wife. We just don't see that level of love between most couples. Thank you for your witness of love to the world.
Thanks for your comment, @H D. We're glad to hear you appreciate these videos and messages! Merry Christmas. comeuntochrist.org
This hymn, when sung properly, can reduce a grown man to tears. No one does it better than the Mormons.
I love this song as well! I just thought that you might like this song as well! th-cam.com/video/gAhAVBtGhy8/w-d-xo.html
The hymn has humbled me now I feel closer to heaven
Wait, Mormons?
Mormons gross me out...they're blasphemous heathens.
music...nobody does it better than traditional Catholics
I'm a LDS and I've learned in Church to love ALL my brothers and sisters no matter their faith! Thank you for your comments! Above all, I love my Father in heaven and want always to be nearer Him!
Am lds and served a full-time mission ...I can't believe am mormon. Love ma. Religion
beautiful voices, what blessing song bringing us closer to God, from Kenya
When i hear this hymn i only fell peace and calm, "he turned the storm into a whisper"
I am not a religious person by nature but I can still appreciate the sentiment in the hymn and the beliefs of others. I can also appreciate the talent of this wonderful choir and it’s fantastic rendition of a moving piece.
I shed tears each time I hear this song of my brothers. I guess, after I arrive in Heaven, it is this kind of feeling that makes my scalp numb and want to cry, Right? Right!
My Lord! How nice! ! May God bless every one here in 2021-2022! Hallelujah!
this music helps me remember jesus and god . now when it's COVID 19 i havven't been able ot go to church and things have went bad i started swearing again but this reminds me of him
The spirit has helped to avoid swearing. I hope the same becomes true for you!
A very beautiful hymn which gives me a goosebumps inside my heart too and tears come as the same time I remember my First Wife who died some weeks ago. I hope a day we will be together near the Lord.
Me siento bien cuando escucho este himno, me recuerda a mi adolescencia y juventud. Gracias Padre Celestial.
Ipraise thee my Lord Heavenly Father Amen Archangels come protect US all and save us all Nations 🙏🙏💕🌹🌹

I Love this Choir, my Father { † } was an Organist and directed a Mixed Choir he often gave Organ Concerts, I Like this religious Atmosphere.
May God Bless us All in these Difficult Times..
I Have a thought for the Ukrainian People currently at War ! ✨ ❤️ .. ✨ ❤️ .. ✨❤️
Ich unterstütze die Ukrainer, meine Urgroßeltern erlitten 2 Weltkriege, als ich jung war, erklärten sie mir das Unglück und den Hass der vielen Todesfälle auf der ganzen Welt durch diesen verrückten Hitler, heute haben wir einen Doppelgänger in Form dieses verrückten Wladimir Putin dieser wahnsinnige Zar.
Was können wir tun ?
NICHTS !
Danke für deinen Kommentar. ✨❤️ .. ✨❤️ .. ✨❤️

I support the Ukrainians, my great-grandparents suffered 2 world wars, when I was young they explained to me the misfortunes and hatred of the many deaths around the world by this madman Hitler, today we have a Doppelganger in the form of this crazy Vladimir Putin this Delirious Tsar.
What can we do ?
NOTHING !
Thank you for your comment.✨❤️ ..✨❤️ .. ✨❤️
May God bless both Ukrainian and Russian people.
Mark, I was a Smoke Jumper in Alaska. lots of unsettling experiences. This song became my Anchor! I know just what you describe. It is nice to know God is with his children constantly. All we have to do is open our heart to him!
wow I'm not lds but that doesn't stop me from loving this choir. I've been listening to their songs for the past couple of hours. absolutely heavenly. I would love to be a church organist one day, and fill our empty churches here in England with music again 🇬🇧
Read the book of Mormon and watch how your life changes
Even as an atheist I absolutely love this song❤️
Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
I'm exmormon now but I remember people singing this at my baptism back in 2008 .. Good memories 👍🏾
Return!
In these troubled times this song heals you amen🙏
Wonderfully sung by so many clean-cut decent looking guys.
I every time I hear this song, I think of RMS Titanic breaking and slipping beneath the waves and all those aboard her.
Rest In Peace to the 1,496 lives lost on April 15th, 1912.
ALL WE NEED IN THIS DAYS ,WE NEED THEE LORD FOR EVERYTHING ,WE NEED THEE LORD
I just realized how heaven would be even if humans can sing such a beautiful song like this
Sou católico, irmãos protestantes, eu amo vocês, em nome do Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, amém!
In the second coming of the chirst we would all will sing this hymn in the front of our God!
A beautiful hymn, but this amazing arrangement opens it to the heavens. Love love love to hear all these male voices. Aren’t we so blessed to have this precious, priceless gift of music from our Heavenly Father? It speaks to us of the love He has for us.
There is a proverb in German: Wo man singt, da lass dich ruhig nieder; böse Menschen haben keine Lieder. (Where they sing, there you should settle and live; evil persons don't have songs.) Music = humanity.
This Hymn reminds me just how much I need God all the time and how much better life is with him here! ;)
Almighty God, good and well
Blessings to hear Nearer My God to Thee. Thank you. L.D.
I dedicated this gorgeous song to all the beloved souls that lost their lives on the Titanic on April 15, 1912. May they regoice in the LORD Jesus Christ and be embraced by God. And have eternal glory. ❤
