More Love to Thee

Author: Mrs. E. P. Prentiss Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.2 #8 (1889) First Line: More love to thee, O Christ 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 to thee; More love, O Christ, 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 to thee; More love, O Christ, to thee, More love to thee. 3 Let sorrow do its work, Send grief and pain; Sweet are thy messengers, Sweet their refrain, When they can sing with me,— More love to thee; More love, O Christ, to thee, More love to thee. 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 to thee; More love, O Christ, to thee, More love to thee.
