Dig A Little Deeper - Original Mono - Mahalia Jackson

Nearer to Thee I want to be

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

I want to shine with love sublime

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

I want to dig a little deeper, yes, dig a little deeper

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

I want to talk like Jesus would

And walk like a Christian should

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

I want to do what’s always true

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

Each passing hour I want more power

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

Teach me thy love way each passing day

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love

Thy will to know as on I go

I want to dig a little deeper in the store-house of God’s love
