Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart,
Draw me, my Saviour, so precious Thou art!
Fold me, oh, fold me close to Thy breast.
Shelter me safe in that "Haven of Rest";
Shelter me safe in that "Haven of Rest".

Nearer, still nearer, nothing I bring,
Naught as an off'ring to Jesus, my king;
Only my sinful, now contrite heart.
Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart;
Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart.

Nearer, still nearer, Lord, to be Thine!
Sin, with its follies, I gladly resign;
All of its pleasures, pomp and its pride,
Give me but Jesus, my Lord, crucified;
Give me but Jesus, my Lord, crucified.

Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last,
Till safe in glory my anchor is cast;
Thro' endless ages ever to be,
Nearer, my Saviour, still nearer to Thee;
Nearer, my Saviour, still nearer to Thee!

親近，更親近，貼近主懷，
寶貴救主，領我來親近你！
抱我，抱我，貼近你胸懷，
讓我安居在那 "安息之所"；
讓我安居在那 "安息之所"。

親近，更親近，全無一物，
可作供物獻給耶穌我王；
今只有憂傷痛悔的心，
賜你寶血使我罪得洗淨；
賜你寶血使我罪得洗淨。

親近，更親近，我願屬主！
一切罪惡、愚行、世上享樂，
虛榮、驕傲，我都樂撇下，
只要得釘十架我主耶穌；
只要得釘十架我主耶穌。

親近，更親近，一生不止，
直到我錨安穩在榮耀裡；
一直到永遠永永遠遠，
親近我救主更親近我主；
親近我救主更親近我主！
