Hymn 830 – I want to be like Jesus | C&S English Hymnary

1. I want to be like Jesus, So lowly and so meek For no one marked an angry word That ever heard Him speak. 2. I want to be like Jesus So frequently in prayer Alone upon the mountain-top He met His Father there. 3. I want to be like Jesus I never, never find That He, though persecuted, was To any one unkind. 4. I want to be like Jesus Engaged in doing good So that of me it may be said She hath done what she could. 5. I want to be like Jesus Who sweetly said to all Let little children come to me I would obey the call. 6. But oh, I’m not like Jesus As any one may see Then, gentle Saviour, send Thy Grace, And make me like to Thee AMEN
