hymnal 314
1 More love to Thee, O Christ, more love to Thee!
Hear Thou the prayer I make on bended knee.
This is my earnest pleas: 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 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! Amen.
