Not So Much to Be Loved as to Love

Not So Much to Be Loved as to Love is an album by Jonathan Richman, released in 2004. The title is excerpted from Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace, "O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek ... to be loved, as to love."

The album contains two unlisted bonus tracks: "The Sea Was Calling Me Home" and an alternate version of the title track.
