1 More and more my heart is longing
In Thine image, Lord, to grow;
All the fullness of the power
Of redemption I would know.
Draw me nearer ev’ry day,
And increase my faith, I pray;
All the fullness of the power
Of redemption I would know.

Refrain:
More of Thee, more each day,
This my prayer shall ever be;
More of Thee, more each day,
Let Thy Spirit dwell in me.

2 As the flowers fair unfolding
Beauteous petals to the sun,
Let my life, Thy grace receiving,
Honor Thee, Most Holy One.
In my heart forever shine,
Sun of Righteousness divine;
Let my life, Thy grace receiving,
Honor Thee, Most Holy One. [Refrain]

3 All the world is dark without Thee,
Life is empty, dull and drear;
Show Thy face, and floods of glory
Fill the earth with light and cheer.
Oh, that all might know Thee, Lord!
Be Thy name all adored;
Show Thy face, and floods of glory
Fill the earth with light and cheer. [Refrain]
