More Love to Thee

 

More Love to Thee

God loves you and there is nothing you can do to add to it or take it away. We also should love God in return. The amount of love isn’t the issue. It’s the heartfelt yearning to love Him more every day that makes our life more meaningful. When we get down on bended knee our love for Him and what He has done for us should pour out of our pores. When we enjoy the beauty of our surroundings, the material blessings He has provided for us, our safe havens, our family and friends, our hearts tend to navigate toward loving Him more. Thank you Lord, for loving us so much that you gave your only son to die for us.

Lyrics by Elizabeth P. Prentiss, arranged by William H. Doane

“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.

Once earthly joy I craved, sought peace and rest; Now Thee alone I see, give what is best; this all my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee.

Let sorrow do its work. Send grief and pain; Sweet are Thy messengers, sweet their refrain, when they can sing with me; More love, O Christ 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!
