Bethany - Christian Hymn$$$$$$Nearer, my God, to Thee is a famous 19th century Christian hymn.
The first five verses were written in 1841 by British actress and poet Sarah Flower Adams (1805-1848).
The sixth verse was written by Edward H. Bickersteth, Jr.
This hymn is based on the scripture Genesis 28:11-12.
The music is the tune Bethany, which was composed in 1856 by American composer Lowell Mason (1792-1872).
The hymn has become associated with the RMS Titanic, as passengers reported that the string ensemble played it in the final minutes before the vessel sank.
