More Faith, O Christ, in Thee

Representative Text

1 More faith in thee, O Christ,
More faith in thee;
Trust in thy promises,
Give thou to me.
This shall be all my plea:
More faith, O Christ, in thee,
More faith in thee,
More faith in thee.

2 Faith that will soar above,
Fearless and free,
Reaching the heights of love,
Give thou to me.
This still my prayer shall be:
More faith, O Christ, in thee,
More faith in thee,
More faith in thee.

3 Faith that shall comfort me
In sorrow's night,
Raising from depths of woe
To realms of light.
This shall my pleading be:
More faith, O Christ, in thee,
More faith in thee,
More faith in thee.

4 Now on my longing soul
Earth's pleasures pall;
Day-spring of joy divine,
Thou art my all.
Incline thine ear to me,
More faith, O Christ, in thee,
More faith in thee,
More faith in thee.

5 Then shall my closing eyes
With rapture see,
Far, far beyond the skies,
Heaven for me.
Joyous my soul shall be:
More faith, O Christ, in thee,
More faith in thee,
More faith in thee.
