Lyrics

More about Je­sus would I know,
More of His grace to oth­ers show;
More of His sav­ing full­ness see,
More of His love who died for me.

Refrain

More, more about Je­sus,
More, more about Je­sus;
More of His sav­ing full­ness see,
More of His love who died for me.

More about Je­sus let me learn,
More of His ho­ly will dis­cern;
Spirit of God, my teach­er be,
Showing the things of Christ to me.

Refrain

More about Je­sus; in His Word,
Holding com­mun­ion with my Lord;
Hearing His voice in ev­ery line,
Making each faith­ful say­ing mine.

Refrain

More about Je­sus; on His throne,
Riches in glo­ry all His own;
More of His king­dom’s sure in­crease;
More of His com­ing, Prince of Peace.
