Hear me, blest Saviour, when I call;
Hear me, and from Thy dwelling-place
Pour down the riches of Thy grace:
Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore,
O make me love Thee more and more.
How can I love Thee as I ought?
And how extol Thy matchless fame,
The glorious beauty of Thy Name?
Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore,
O make me love Thee more and more.
That Thou hast dealt so lovingly?
How great the joy that Thou hast brought!
So far exceeding hope or thought!
Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore,
O make me love Thee more and more.
To Thee my heart and soul belong;
All that I am or have is Thine,
And Thou, my Saviour! Thou art mine.
Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore,
O make me love Thee more and more.
