While strug­gling thro’ this vale of tears,
I want more faith in Je­sus;
Amid temp­ta­tions, cares and fears,
I want more faith in Je­sus.

Refrain

I want more faith, I want more faith,
A clearer, bright­er, strong­er faith in Je­sus;
And this my cry, as time rolls by,
I want more faith in Je­sus.

To war against the foes with­in
I want more faith in Je­sus;
To rise above the pow­ers of sin
I want more faith in Je­sus.

Refrain

To brave the storms that here I meet
I want more faith in Je­sus;
To rest con­fid­ing at His feet
I want more faith in Je­sus.

Refrain

I want a faith that works by love,
A con­stant faith in Je­sus;
A faith that mount­ains can remove,
A liv­ing faith in Je­sus.

Refrain
