More love to Thee, O Christ, more love to Thee.
Hear now 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.
This still its prayer shall be,
More love, O Christ, to Thee.
More love to Thee, more love to Thee.
