More sweetness within,
More patience in suff’ring,
More sorrow for sin,
More faith in my Savior,
More sense of His care,
More joy in His service,
More freedom in prayer.
Comfort, strengthen and keep me;
Thou each moment wilt save me,
Thou art saving me now.
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.
More strength to o’ercome,
More freedom from earth-stains,
More quest for the throne,
More fit for the kingdom,
More useful I’d be,
More blessed and holy,
More, Savior, like Thee.

For growth in Christ it must be our longing before the Lord. Indeed everything is of Him not by our own effort and strength. Longing more from the Lord that all the human virtues and divine attributes mention in this hymn will be added into us so that we will all be saturated by His divine life and will have the growth and maturity in life. Hallelujah for such Christ who is everything to us!!! Lord Jesus! Amen!
