458- More Love to Thee

Christian Life: Our Love for God

1

  • More love to Thee, O Christ!
  • More love to Thee;
  • Hear Thou the prayer I make
  • On bended knee.
  • This is my earnest plea,
  • More love, O Christ, to Thee,
  • More love to Thee!
  • More love to Thee!

2

  • Once earthly joy I craved,
  • Sought peace and rest;
  • Now Thee alone I seek,
  • Give what is best.
  • This all my prayer shall be,
  • More love, O Christ, to Thee,
  • More love to Thee!
  • More love to Thee!

3

  • Let sorrow do its work,
  • Send grief or pain;
  • Sweet are Thy messengers,
  • Sweet their refrain,
  • When they can sing with me,
  • More love, O Christ, to Thee,
  • More love to Thee!
  • More love to Thee!

4

  • Then shall my latest breath
  • Whisper Thy praise;
  • This be the parting cry
  • My heart shall raise,
  • This still its prayer shall be:
  • More love, O Christ, to Thee,
  • More love to Thee!
  • More love to Thee!
