Hymn 987: One sweetly solemn thought

Also listed as SS&S 987 • SSS 987 • SS and S 987 • Sacred Songs 987

One sweetly solemn thought Comes to me o'er and o'er — I'm nearer home to-day, to-day, Than e'er I've been before.

Nearer my home, nearer my home, Nearer my home to-day, to-day, Than e'er I've been before.

2. Nearer my Father's house, Where many mansions be ; Nearer the great white throne to-day. Nearer the crystal sea.

3. Nearer the bound of life, Where burdens are laid down ; Nearer leaving the cross to-day, Nearer gaining the crown.

4. Be near me when rny feet Are slipping o'er the brink ; For I am nearer home to-day, Nearer now than I think.
