Nearer My God To Thee Hymn On The Dream Of Jesus
Nearer My God To Thee is a Christian hymn that became popular in the 19th Century. The theme of the hymn is the dream of Jacob as mentioned in the Genesis 28:11-19.The Genesis accounts that Jacob while travelling to far-off lands reached an unknown place. As it was getting dark, he decided to spend the night there. In absence of a pillow, he rested his head on a stone he found nearby. In his sleep he dreamt that a ladder had been fixed between the earth and the heaven for angels to travel easily between the two place. The hymn is based on this fantasy.
