More love to Thee, O Christ, More love to thee! Hear thou the prayer I make On bended knee; This 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 prayer shall be: 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 my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ, to Thee More love to Thee, More love to Thee!
