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!

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;

Still all my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;

More love to Thee, more love to Thee!

More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
