More love to Thee!
Hear Thou the prayer I make
On bended knee:
This is my earnest plea,
More love, O Christ, 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, O Christ, to Thee!
More love to Thee!
More love to Thee!

Send grief and pain;
Sweet are Thy messengers,
Sweet their refrain,
When they can sing with me,
More love, O Christ, to Thee.
More love 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, O Christ, to Thee.
More love to Thee!
More love to Thee!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [More love to thee, O Christ!]

Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #203 (1898) Topics: Love To God and Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to Thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, Thine alone I am;
Be Thou alone my constant flame.
2 Oh, grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell, but Thy pure love alone!
Oh, may Thy love possess me whole,
And be my treasure, and my crown!
Strange flames far from my heart remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love!
3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray!
All pain before thy presence flies:
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek but Thee!
4 O draw me, Saviour, after Thee!
So shall I run and never tire.
With gracious words still comfort me;
Be Thou my hope, my sole desire.
Free me from every weight: not fear
No sin can come, if Thou art here.
5 From all eternity, with love
Unchangeable Thou hast me viewed;
Ere knew this beating heart to move,
Thy tender mercies me pursued.
Ever with me may they abide,
And close me in on every side.
6 Still let Thy love point out my way;
What wondrous things Thy love hath wrought!
Still lead me, lest I go astray;
Direct my word, inspire my thought;
And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice, and know that love is near.
7 In suffering, be Thy love my peace;
In weakness, be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that dark final hour
Of death, be Thou my guide and friend,
That I may love Thee without end. Languages: English Tune Title: OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, HEAR OUR PRAYER

Love to Christ present or absent
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXLIX (1792) Topics: The Graces of the Holy Spirit Love to God First Line: Of all the joys we mortals know Lyrics: 1 Of all the joys we mortals know,
Jesus, thy love exceeds the rest;
Love, the best blessing here below,
The highest rapture of the blest.
2 While we are held in thy embrace,
There's not a thought attempts to rove;
Each smile upon thy beauteous face,
Fixes, and charms, and fires our love.
3 When of thy absence we complain,
And long, or weep in all we do,
There's a strange pleasure in the pain,
And tears have their own sweetness too.
4 When round thy courts by day we rove,
Or ask the watchmen of the night
For some kind tidings of our love,
Thy very name creates delight.
5 Jesus, our God, yet rather come;
Our eyes shall dwell upon thy face;
'Tis best to see our Lord at home,
And feel the presence of his grace. Languages: English

For man to suffer, bleed, and die;
And bid'st me as a wretch undone,
For all I want on him rely.
3 In him thy reconciled face,
With joy unspeakable I see;
And feel thy powerful, wondrous grace
Draw and unite my soul to thee.
4 Whene'er my foolish wandering heart,
Attracted by a creature's power,
Would from this blissful center start
Lord, fix there to stray no more!

In weakness, be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that important hour
In death, as life, be Thou my guide,
And save me, who for me hast died.

Spirit of God, Who Dwells within My Heart
Author: George Croly Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #419 (1987) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Love Our Love to God; Love Our Love to God Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, who dwells within my heart,
wean it from sin, through all its pulses move.
Stoop to my weakness, mighty as you are,
and make me love you as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies;
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Did you not bid us love you, God and King,
love you with all our heart and strength and mind?
I see the cross– there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to feel that you are always nigh;
teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
to check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;
teach me the patience of unceasing prayer.
5 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame:
the fullness of the heaven-descended Dove;
my heart an altar, and your love the flame.
