Author: Elizabeth Prentiss, 1818 - 78 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #392 (1958) Topics: The Life In Christ Consecration; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 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.
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. A-men.
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. Languages: English Tune Title: MORE LOVE TO THEE
More love to thee, O Christ
