Lyrics

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

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

Let sorrow do its work,
Send grief and 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.

Then shall my latest breath
Whisper Thy praise,
This be the parting cry
My heart shall raise,
This still its pray'r shall be:
More love, O Christ to Thee,
More love to Thee,
More love to Thee.
