[[Full Lyrics]]

[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 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!

[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!
