Verse 1
More holiness give me, more strivings within;
More patience in suffering, more sorrow for sin;
More faith in my Saviour, more sense of His care;
More joy in His service, more purpose in prayer.

Verse 2
More gratitude give me, more trust in the Lord;
More zeal for His glory, more hope in His Word;
More tears for His sorrows, more pain at His grief;
More meekness in trial, more praise for relief.

Verse 3
More purity give me, more strength to o'ercome;
More freedom from earth-stains, more longings for home;
More meet for Thy kingdom, O Lord would I be,
More fruitful, more holy, more Saviour, like Thee.
