Sir Joseph Barnby, 1872 1 Jesus, my Lord, my God, my All, Hear me, blest Sav-iour, when I cad; b3 4 Hear me, and from Thy dwell-ing-place Pour down the riches of Thy grace: 昌 Jesus, my Lord, I Thee adore; O make me love Thee more and more. A - MEN. 2 Jesus, too late I Thee have sought; O make me love Thee more and more. 3 Jesus, what didst Thou find in me How great the joy that Thou hast brought, Jesus, my Lord, I Thee adore; O make me love Thee more and more. 4 Jesus, of Thee shall be my song; To Thee my heart and soul belong: And Thou, blest Saviour, Thou art mine: O make me love Thee more and more. Rev. Henry Collins, 1854 537 ST. CATHERINE 8.8.8.8.8.8. 4 Henri F. Hemy, 1865: alt. by James G. Walton, 1871 1 Jesus, Thy bound-less love to me No thought can reach, no tongue de clare; 4 O knit my thank-ful heart to Thee, And reign with-out a rival there: O Thine whol-ly, Thine a - lone, I am, Be Thou alone my con-stant Flame. A - MEN. 2 O grant that nothing in my soul O may Thy love possess me whole, 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, Or hear, or feel, or think, but Thee. Rev. Paul Gerhardt, 1653. 4 Still let Thy love point out my way; How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my work, inspire my thought; And if I fall, soon may I hear Thy voice, and know that love is near. 5 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 important hour, In death, as life, be Thou my Guide, And save me, who for me hast died. Trans. by Rev. John Wesley, 1739: verse 3, line 6, alt. |
