Let Me Come Closer to Thee, Jesus
Author: J. L. Lyne, 19th Century Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #318 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Let me come closer to Thee, Jesus,
Oh, closer day by day;
Let me lean harder on Thee, Jesus,
Yes, harder all the way.
2 Let me show forth Thy beauty, Jesus,
Like sunshine on the hills!
Oh, let my lips pour forth Thy sweetness
In joyous, sparkling rills!
3 Yes, like a fountain, precious Jesus,
Make me and let me be;
Keep me and use me daily, Jesus,
For Thee, for only Thee.
4 In all my heart and will, O Jesus,
Be altogether King!
Make me a loyal subject, Jesus,
To Thee in every thing.
5 Thirsting and hung'ring for Thee, Jesus,
With blessed hunger here,
Looking for home on Zion's mountain,
No thirst, no hunger there.
Amen. Topics: Fellowship with God; The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Languages: English Tune Title: LLANTHONY ABBEY

John Henry Lester
1845 - 1900 Person Name: John H. Lester, 19th Century Composer of "LLANTHONY ABBEY" in Worship and Service Hymnal Lester, John Henry, M.A., of St. John's College, Cambridge; B.A. in honours, 1868 ; M.A., 1871. Ordained in 1868, he held several appointments, including the Rectory of South Hackney, 1885-90, and Diocesan Missioner in the diocese of Lichfield, 1880-85. In 1884 he became a Prebendary of Lichfield, and in 1890 Rector of Lexden, Essex. His The Lichfield Church Mission Hymn Book, 1883, was revised as The Lichfield Mission Hymn Book (n.d.). To the former he contributed:—
1. Hark, my soul, the sound of voices. Heaven Desired.
2. Hush, my soul, what voice is pleading? The Voice of Jesus.
3. O happy land of Paradise. Heaven.
4. O come ye redeemed. Praise of Jesus.
5. O solemn hour, so strange and still. Repentance.
6. Until He come! Ah, yes. Awaiting the End.
To these in the revised edition he added four original Metrical Litanies.
