Nearer to Thee

At church I feel so happy
At church I feel so free
For it is there I am closer
Yes, nearer my Lord to Thee

When I enter into that building...
That beautiful sanctuary...
There I feel my burdens lifted
There I set them down, am free

Each week it is the same
Each Sabbath day I come
To worship my Lord in heaven
To be uplifted once again

I feel the peace descending
I feel that nearness only God can bring
I feel His angels descending
Coming down to be with me

As I pray to my Lord in heaven
I am lifted up on angel's wings
For, there, my prayers go flying
I am changed within my being
