Lyrics:
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!
Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!
Amen.

I'm agnostic...but I swear...if there was ever anything that could make me convert to Christianity, it'd be liturgical music. I don't know what the presence of Christ, or god, or whatever, would feel like, but these musical pieces fill me with what I can only describe as awe. It's like seeing the grand canyon but with my ears.
Glad you like the music. We invite you to listen and feel the Spirit of God.
Music is a gift from God. You can feel Him through it. Keep looking further into it. We (Christians) and Christ loves you, brother!
I would say, the spirit feels like true peace and comfort, follow that feeling onto a path that makes you the happiest, and thank you for sharing:)
What a marvelous description of listening to this hymn and choir. I've been to the Grand Canyon and I know exactly what you're saying and feeling. Don't look now but you're feeling the gentle Spirit!
God finds us in all kinds of different ways. I get closest to the divine through music, too. It’s my most frequent channel for prayer, faith, healing, and hope.
Gentlemen, it was an honor playing with you tonight.
It's been years, yet it feels like yesterday.
Thank you
My mother passed away on August 14th, 2017 and was laid to rest on August 19th, 2017. When my dad and I were sitting down with the pastor, this is the only hymn I could think of. It's a beautiful song, unfortunately not being trained vocalists, we didn't really do the song justice. Of course when I hear this song it now makes me cry......miss you mom.
Im sure she appreciated the efforts🤍
We sang the song at my dad's funeral I couldn't little busy crying, and we added it to the tomb stone also. Sorry for your lost
Be calm dear.
may her soul rest in peace
I'm sorry. Memory Eternal..
I’ve been going through a hard time recently, this song makes me feel the spirit so powerfully and fills me with such hope. Everything is going to be ok
I’m in the same situation as you and feel the same way. Thanks for your comment 🙏🏻
'Gentlemen, it was a great privilege playing with you all. Goodluck.'
I'm here in 2022 at age 25, and I already know this song must be played at my funeral. A soul-lifting and a song of hope.
Me too
me too, but for me in spanish , im from mexico
A little advice from an old man: 1, Do everything! 2. Worry about nothing.
3. Dance and laugh every day. 4. Keep yourself alive until retirement age: it's the most unimaginable freedom.
Those french horns....just simply majestic
Brings tears to my eyes.
My Dad died this morning in Cebu, Philippines! He lived a great life, served the Lord to the best of his abilities especially as a Patriarch and a Sealer! I am so sad that I can't go to pay my last respects, yet the knowledge of the gospel truly helps my soul to calm down!
May he rest in peace as he await a joyous resurrection
He would be proud of you my friend.
They played this song at my Grandmothers funeral per her request in her will. Still brings tears to my eyes.
This song brings me some comfort in my struggles with mental health...
I understand
One of the most beautiful hymns ever written. A very moving piece. It brings me to tears.
RIP to all the souls we lost onboard R.M.S. Titanic, 110 years ago. May you all rest in peace and go with God.
Listening to this choir make me feel safe and secure. Thank you all.
Sounds like a lullaby to me. 🙂
I wish everyone can hear this with open hearts, whether you believe in God or not. It is beatiful, soothing and uplifting. Why do some of you have to add hate. We have freedom of religion. What is wrong with live and let live. Truly...why do you have to be so negative. I don't search you out to hurt you. There is beauty everywhere, why can't you see it and be content. I am so frustrated.

For all the people who died during the WTC bombing, my parents, grandparents and brother. RIP.
One of the most beautiful & moving Christian hymns I've ever heard --!!
This brings me to tears when I hear this,and cry uncontrollably all the time
To me tears are the signs the Holy Spirit is near. 12/2/23 Singapore
I’m a big fan of this choir
And I’d love to become a church member, seems nice
It just has the right feel to it
This will be played at my funeral. I love this song
I understand the feeling brother.
I love this hymn, feels the soul with the Spirit of God.
I'm ateu, i dont have faith, but is the most beautiful music
Heavens angels must sound like this! Totally makes you closer to God with these amazing voices in praise to Him! Just so beautiful!!
There are those that by knowing the what this hymn is and has done for generations that have past and for generations to come,who were and will be cosoled- in the face of Today's world condition of despaired humanity; may only be convinced that faith in God is Only the remedy and hope for its only survival is for GOD TO BE NEARER TO humans whose days are numbered.Thank Mormons for keeping the Candle alight in the darkest of despair.
God bless you and your message through you world wide know Choir. (Dr George N Malek)
Yes.
This must be the hymn or theme, even we enter the kingdom of heaven and meet our beloved ones 🎵🕯❤️Peace on Earth and Merry Christmas from Denmark 🇩🇰🕯
Gentlemen, it’s been a privilege playing with you tonight
Ex mormon but will never not respect the sheer beauty of this choir
I am a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
I hope that everyone is having a strong positive blessed Sunday -And know that Heavenly Father & Our Savior Jesus Christ is always with us , for they will help us through many trials, troubles that we are , have been dealing with , unsure of how to handle them
And for Heavenly Father will forgive you of your sins in Our Saviors Name -- In the name of Jesus Christ AMEN...
You all have such beautiful singing voices, the sound of God himself.
Amen
This beautiful hymn is my favorite to play at the beginning and end of each blessed day!
I wish to thank you for sharing this awesome Christian Hymn video with me .
I cried each time I encounter this hymn. I am a hymn person and this particular hymn is one of my favorite. We should all desire to be nearer to Jesus Christ. Halleluyah. This choir has a sound from heaven. I feel the spirit of God moving as I listen. Glory to God. I can't stop listen.
If this is heaven, I hope I get there. How can you hear this and not cry?
Amen brother
Absolutely right Nicholas makes me cry every time
Mickey Mouse
Dear Nicholas, There is indeed a heaven. But, my friend, hoping alone will not get you there. There is but one way, and one way only to heaven. His Name is Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus tells us in John's Gospel, Chapter 14, verse 6: "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6).And... "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." (Acts 4:12).So, how do we get to heaven through Jesus Christ?Jesus Himself tells us: 1. Repent of our sins against God: "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:3).2. Call upon His Name; Ask Him to save you, forgive you of your sins: "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13).3. Live for, serve, and worship Jesus Christ only 'til the end of your days: "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved." (Matthew 24:13).If you have more questions about heaven and how to get there, please email me at leather1@gmail.comIn Christ,/s/Scott L. Adkins
hi there .I am glad you want to go to heaven. its simple just trust the gospel with your heart. here is the gospel which will get you into heaven. czcams.com/video/lbb4xwYj19g/video.html
This Choir is the GREATEST CHOIR on the face of this earth. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU!
Sometimes, i wonder why hymns like this aren't just recorded acapella, because that's the best part, in this case.
What good comments listed. There are few words to convey the peace, talent and spirituality this group of musicians can bring to us. I am an LDS convert. I don't think of the Titanic but a little country church sitting among the beautiful hills of Ohio. I can still see the trees out the windows and feel the ages pass. What a composer. What a conductor. And what heavenly voices. God is good.
Hello from the Southern Baptists in the South of USA.
HELLO TO YOU FROM A LATTER DAY SAINT IN NORWAY.
this choir has looked into paradise...
Not my religion, but it's beautiful. The choir, the hymn, the people, like myself, love the music and its harmonies.
this is a perfection.. goosebumps. ! ❤️
Every single time i Hear this song i remembere to my beloved mother who died by cancer last year (21.11.2014).
And i remembered and miss how she played this very beautiful Hymn sundays at church, and i loved it how she played it .
Bit in the end of the day i know i see her soon again, if i die. Caise i kow that , Redeemer lives
I feel the power of Holy Spirit is with me when I hear this so g I feel uplifted GB This Choir
+Brandon Süß wenn ich überhaupt den tabernacel Chor höre fühle ich mich dem himmel nahe
+Brandon Suess Dear brother My dad passed away on 12/10/2012 and like you I still remember precious moments with him. I love the part of hymn that says then with my waking breath bright with thy praise. Oh glorious day when we shall see our beautiful redeemer. May God pour out his peace upon you.
I am so sorry for your loss. I am glad the music comforts you. God bless.
+Brandon Suess and all, this hymn was a favorite of my great-grandmother. It was played as prelude/processional at her funeral. Every time I hear this hymn, I can't help remembering wheeling her casket into the chapel as the organist played this beautiful hymn (I was a pall bearer). That was more than 30 years ago.
Marvellous.Very encouraging and strenghtening
This song made me reflect on my life. Life is short! The glorious place awaits us all....
Wow what a wonderful time.. Glory to God God bless you all
Please may I dedicate this to my parents in loving memory Albert and Muriel.Never forgotten.
Always in our hearts.
great
Mautoatadi
Christ the lord is risen hallelujah hallelujah mormon tabernacle choir is great. Praise our lord. I can listen to this all day. God bless choir and everyone .
This is a Christian’s fervent prayer and plea, and that our lives may be worthy of His presence, and the choir renders this prayer perfectly.
Praise the Lord and bless the U.S.A
Thank you so much.
Brought to tears. Being in unity like that reminds me when i use to go to church every sunday with my grandma and my aunt as little girls.apart from all the things that are said about the mormon chirchbive never once had a negative experience
Back in 2010 we present this song for our departed Class mate from Bike accident. It was such an emotional moment knowing that he no longer is with us. May he finds Eternal Peace with Lord Jesus Christ.
In this time of world wide trials and tribulations, THIS is what keeps my spirits high, gives me hope, joy, and a profound sense of calm knowing that the Saviour is watching over us all. Keeping ourselves centred on what matters most...our Lord! Helps us be at peace when this world is in turmoil. We steer our own boats but as long as we keep the Lord in our lives to navigate when the storms of life rock our vessels, we will be alright no matter what happens.
Amen.
im so proud to be a mormon with this such splendid choir.
I told my wife that during my funeral, this music must be played together with Ave Maria.
Very beautiful and majestaty song, I love it
Wonderful cool worship may you be blessed
i love god i have lots of mental disorder sometimes i got a mental breakdown but i know that god always calm my uncontrollable thoughts ❤
O my God this is so comforting
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is the greatest and most spiritual choir con al Earth. They are inspired by God and they make us feel the Holy Spirit in a very good way.
I image Heaven's choir to be like this but with billions more people singing and. with beautiful sounds yet unheard. Perhaps we'll all have beautiful voices and we'll all be dingo,g.

YO OPINO LO MISMO QUE USTED. DESDE CHILE....BIANCA ANTONELLA DI VANNI DI BIAGGIO.
I SANG this song, Nearer my God to there in 2015, at my father's funeral 😣 It was extremely hard. Love you dad
It looks like when we will meet our Lord Jesus,singing songs of praise forever. Love you guys.
This brings me to a time when my maternal grandmother would sing this to me. As a little boy, frightened of storms at night, her voice and the words of this song would return peace to me. It also spoke of her faith in the Almighty and her dearest hope of the Resurrection. Even to this day when the storms of this existence assault me, I hear her singing this and I know the Presence of God once more. What can separate us from the love of God? Only ourselves.
puts a lump in my throat -- every time!
Several years ago I had the honor to attend a rehearsal at the Tabernacle in Salt Lake City. A moving experience reminding me of the joys of loving Christ. As one who plays a French Horn, the Horn parts in this piece are simply fantastic! God bless!
The songs touches my ♥. l love it. Thanks.
Plus près de toi mon D.ieu, un de mes cantiques préférés car il exprime l'essentiel de ce je vis.
I love this song and my little girl loves it too,very wonderful song.
The good lord put you on this earth to help us all confirm our faith
Great song, remembering my mother!
Even if we would close our eyes... the SOUND cleans and purifies our Spirit !
No doubts... God loves all these singers - His humble sons !
This was one of my late mum's favourite hymn.
Every single time. I like to listen the Christmas choir
Who all think we are in end times?Jesus is gonna come soon.
VEN JESUS DEL CIELO CON PODER Y VIRTUD. TE ESPERAMOS CON ANCIAS Y ANHELO. DESDE CHILE....ANTONELLA DI VANNI DI BIAGGIO
Reminds me of my grandmother, who loved this old hymn...
Mine too.. The words "NEARER MY GOD TO THEE" they hit so deep
This reminds me of my mom who died of cancer three years ago. Love you Mommy!
This song reminds me of my late mother whom I lost 3 yrs ago. She did love this song a lot.
the best choir ever
.
Love this old tabernacle.
this is a wonderful performance. such beautiful singing. I am not a mormon, and never will be , but this does not stop me from enjoying this wonderful choir. Let Religion step aside occasionally for music like this.
Indeed, let religion as seen by men step aside, and let the Love of TRUTH which is Christ, step in, that we may once in our life exercise the Higher Law: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
What would the real world do without these wonderful people? The joy on their faces is obvious.
Music is the flow deep from the soul!
Ich danke Gott für diesen wunderbaren Chor. Gehöre nicht dieser Gemeinschaft an, doch immer am Sonntag erlebe ich immer wieder diesen ausergewöhnlichen Chor. Gott schütze diese Gemeinschaft, danke.
I love this song, it gives me the chills . When my aunt and cousin passed we sang this song at church and it reminds me of them. Every time to listen to the Tabernacle choir I get a feeling I am in heaven.
Soul lifting. Whenever I listen to this song it reminds me of d last day of judgement
I want to be nearer, my God to Thee! This is my prayer...
Jair, I think that this has been the inhabitants of this planet one "problem" for as long as humans have existed. Money, fame, and every conceivable novelty and convenience to "make us happy", has yet to do so...
This brought me peace x
- näher mein Gott zu dir - ist einer der Eindruckvollsten Lieder die ich kenne und es gibt mir Gelegenheit über den Sinn des Lebens versuchen zu begreifen..
Ich lebe zur Zeit in Brasilien und habe endlich Zeit in ruhe Musik zu hören ohne hetze und Stress. Der Mormon Tabernacle Choir höre ich mittlerweile fast jeden zweiten Tag über CZcams und ja ich kann sagen ich freue mich diesen wunderbaren Chor zu hören, danke.

From South Africa with LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE...
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 heav'n;
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!
Instrumental
Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I'll fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
There in my Father's home, safe and at rest,
There in my Savior's love, perfectly blest;
Age after age to be,
Nearer my God to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
Thanks for sharing the lyrics. 12/2/23 Singapore
The YM and YW had to sing this one day in our Ward. We never could get close to these guys.
They are the best.
Yes, this choir is quite good, But they have got nothing on the way your youth sang this song.
I love listening to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and often the music is so beautiful and my heart is so full, I cry. I sing in our ward choir and wish I was as good as the Tabernacle singers. I never grow tired of listening to them and would love to go to Salt Lake to see them in reality
I am no Mormon and I am not too keen on the USA but I too would gladly go to Salt Lake to see and hear this wonderful music for real.
Wunderbare Version... kommt gleich hinter Andrè Rieu! Friede auf Erden...
nearer my God to thee…
Very moving and beautiful
Proud to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Music brings joy into my heart. I love this hymn so much. It will be played again and again and again at my funeral.
yes the band onboard the titanic played this song as they were sinking. my mother talked about it and sang the song that was written about the disaster. it is a most beautiful song.
Praise God for the wonderful song.
Very touching..His name be praise.
Truly truly beautiful
I love this hymn. It is one of those many which touches my heart deeply.
God is good! You can feel it in this song.
thank you
moved to tears
Beautiful!
