Author: Elizabeth Prentiss (1818-1878)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. 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!

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!

3. 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,
    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!

1. Hymn: Olives That Have Known No Pressure

Hymn: Olives That Have Known No Pressure

Author: Watchman Nee (1903-1972)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. Olives that have known no pressure
    Never can oil bestow;
    If the grapes escape the winepress,
    Cheering wine can never flow;
    Spikenard only through the crushing,
    Its fragrance can diffuse.
    Shall I then, shrink from the suff’ring
    That Thy love would so induce?

Refrein:

Each blow I suffer

Is true gain to me.

In the place of what Thou takest

Thou dost give Thyself to me.

2. Do my heart-strings need Thy stretching,
    Music divine to prove?
    Must the sweetest music come from
    The harsh treatment of Thy love?
    Lord, I fear no deprivation
    If I be drawn to Thee;
    I would yield in full surrender
    All Thy heart of love to see.

3. I’m ashamed, my Lord, for seeking
    Myself to guard alway;
    Though Thy love had done its stripping,
    Yet I felt compelled Thy way.
    Lord, according to Thy pleasure
    Complete Thy work in me;
    Heeding not my human feelings,
    Only do what pleases Thee.

4. If Thy mind and mine should differ,
    Pursue, O Lord, Thy way;
    If Thy pleasure means my sorrow,
    Still my heart shall answer, “Yea!”
    ’Tis my deep desire to please Thee,
    Though I might suffer loss;
    E’en though Thy delight and glory
    Mean that I endure the cross.

5. Oh, I’ll praise Thee, e’en if weeping
    Be mingled with my song.
    Thine increasing sweetness calls forth
    Grateful praises all day long.
    Thou hast made Thyself more precious
    Than everything to me:
    Thou increase and I decrease, Lord-
    This is now my only plea.

1. Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
    Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art—
    Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
    Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

2. Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
    I ever with Thee and Thou with me Lord;
    Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
    Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

3. Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
    Be Thou my armor, be Thou my true might.
    Be Thou my soul‵s shelter, be Thou my strong tower;
    Raise Thou me heavenward, great power of my power.

4. Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
    Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
    Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
    High King of heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

5. High King of heaven, my victory won,
    May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s Sun!
    Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
    Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
