More Love to Thee, O Christ

Verse 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! Verse 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! Verse 3 Let sorrow do it's 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! Verse 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!
