Hearts and voices

raising praises to our king 

All we have to offer

All we hope to be 

Body soul and spirit

All we yield to thee

2. Nearer, ever, nearer Christ we draw

to the

Deep in adoration, bending low

the kneel

Thou for our redemption, camest on

earth to die

Thou that we might follow

Hast gone up on high

3. Onward, ever onward, journey O’er

the road

Journey on to God leaving all

Behind us, may we hasten on

Backward never looking till the

price is won

4. Nearer still and clearer, Dawns the

light from heaven,

In our sadness bringing, news

of sin forgiven

Life has lost its shadow, pure the

light within

Thou has shed thy radiance, on a

world of sin

5. Higher then, and higher bear the

ransomed soul,

Earthly toils forgotten saviour to

its goal,

Where in joys unthought-of,

saints with angels sing

Never weary, raising praises to their

king, Amen.
