"Nearer, My God, to Thee" is a 19th-century Christian hymn by Sarah Flower Adams, based loosely on Genesis 28:11–19, the story of Jacob's dream. Genesis 28:11–12 can be translated as follows: "So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep. Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it..."
The hymn is well known, among other uses, as the alleged last song the band on RMS Titanic played before the ship sank.
The lyrics to the hymn are as follows:
A sixth verse was later added to the hymn by Edward Henry Bickersteth Jr. as follows:
The verse was written by the English poet and Unitarian hymn writer Sarah Flower Adams (1805–48) at her home in Sunnybank, Loughton, Essex, England, in 1841. It was first set to music by Adams's sister, the composer Eliza Flower, for William Johnson Fox's collection Hymns and Anthems.
Please enjoy this full version. This is the song the band played before the Titanic sank. "Sometime around 2.10 a.m. as the Titanic began settling more quickly into the icy North Altantic, the sounds of ragtime, familiar dance tunes and popular waltzes that had floated reassuringly across her decks suddenly stopped as Bandmaster Wallace Hartley tapped his bow against his violin. Hartley and his musicians, all wearing their lifebelts now, were standing back at the base of the second funnel, on the roof of the First Class Lounge, where they had been playing for the better part of an hour. There were a few moments of silence, then the solemn strains of the hymn "Nearer My God to Thee" began drifting across the water. It was with a perhaps unintended irony that Hartley chose a hymn that ...
On April 15, 2016, The Duttons were privileged to perform "Nearer, My God, to Thee” in the exhibit room with Wallace Hartley’s magnificent violin display in commemoration of the sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic on April 15, 1912. Wallace H. Hartley, at 33 years old, perished in the sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic on April 15, 1912. Though the final song played by the band is unknown, legend has it to be "Nearer, My God, to Thee.” It was one of Wallace’s favorite hymns. Wallace Hartley’s body was pulled from the sea ten days after the sinking. The prized violin his fiancée had given him was protectively encased in his leather satchel and strapped to his chest. The Duttons & Branson Titanic Museum Attraction team up to commemorate Wallace Hartley's bitter-sweet story of dedication, love, and ...

Adams is lyricist It was issued on Victor 4818. Richard Jose recorded for the Victor Talking Machine Company exclusively and was popular during that company's early Monarch-Deluxe and Grand Prize periods. Victor recorded nothing from Jose after 1906. In that year he suffered an accident on stage that led to his decline, a stage curtain falling on Jose with enough force to cause severe head injuries. But several Jose selections remained in the Victor catalog until 1919, including "Silver Threads Among the Gold," closely identified with Jose. One Jose disc remained in the catalog as late as 1922: "Abi...

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.
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 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.
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,
Upward I fly
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to thee
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to thee!
