Beschreibung:
Nearer, My God, to Thee' is a 19th-century Christian hymn which retells a story from ‘Genesis': 'So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep. Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it...'<br><br>The hymn was also used by other composers like Carl Nielsen and Charles Ives, and was played by the string ensemble on the movie ‘Titanic' when the vessel sank.<br><br>This arrangement is based on the beautiful BYO choir version and Mike Kilmartin did a great job making a lovely band version of it.
