More Love to Thee
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;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
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!
Let sorrow do its work, send grief or 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!
Then shall my latest breath whisper Thy praise;
This be the parting cry my heart shall raise;
This still my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!

Hey Georgie,
Thanks for your response! I really enjoy the Girl Talk blog myself :) They have a lot of good topics and insights.
I was really excited to hear from you. I've been wanting to e-mail you for awhile, to see how you're doing, but time just keeps getting away from me. I hope things are going well for you and hopefully we'll see you sometime soon!
