Intro: G D C Am G 1. Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart, 2. Nearer, still nearer, noth–ing I bring, 3. Nearer, still nearer, Lord, to be Thine; 4. Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last; C G Em A D D7 Draw me, my Savior, so precious Thou art; Nought as an of-fering to Jesus my King— Sin, with its follies, I gladly resign, Till safe in glory my anchor is cast; G D G Am D Fold me, O fold me close to Thy breast, Only my sin–ful now contrite heart; All of its pleasures, pomp and its pride; Through endless a- - ges, ever to be, G/B C G D Em Shel–ter me safe in that haven of rest, Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart, Give me but Jesus, my Lord cruci - fied, Near–er, my Savior, still nearer to Thee, C G Eb7 G D G Shelter me safe in that ha- - ven of rest. Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart. Give me but Je- - sus, my Lord cruci–fied. Nearer, my Sav - ior, still near–er to Thee.
