More Love To Thee

"More Love to Thee" is a gentle, deeply personal hymn of devotion that traces the journey of a soul drawing closer to Christ. The verses move beautifully from a place of seeking earthly peace to a singular, focused desire for divine love. By the time we reach the final stanza, the prayer becomes a lifelong commitment, asking that even our "latest breath" might whisper God's praise.

In the choir loft, we often bring this piece out during Lenten retreats, consecration services, or as a quiet meditation after Communion. The melody is tender and unhurried, giving the singers room to really mean the words they are praying. Because the final lines of every verse resolve into that simple, echoing plea—"More love, O Christ, to Thee"—it naturally invites the congregation into a shared moment of quiet, heartfelt worship.
