456. More Love to You, O Christ

1 More love to you, O Christ,
more love to you!
Hear now the prayer I make
faith to renew.

Refrain:
In all I say and do,
more love, O Christ, to you,
more love to you,
more love to you!

2 Once earthly joy I craved,
sought peace and rest;
Now you alone I seek,
give what is best: [Refrain]

3 Then shall my latest breath
whisper your praise;
This be the parting cry
my heart shall raise: [Refrain]
