A classic sacred harp (shaped note) song used in the movie Lawless:
Do not I love Thee, Oh my Lord?
Behold my heart, and see,
And turn each cursed idol out,
That dares to rival Thee.
Do not I love Thee from my soul?
Then let me nothing love;
Dead be my heart to evry joy
When Jesus cannot move.
Thou knowst I love Thee, dearest Lord,
But Oh I long to soar
Far from the sphere of mortal joys,
And learn to love Thee more.

Words: Philip Doddridge, 1755
