i have one deep supreme desire
that I may be like Jesus
to this I fervently aspire
that I may be like Jesus
i want my heart his throne to be
so that a watching world may see
His likeness shining forth in me
i want to be like Jesus
i want to be like Jesus
o’ perfect life of Christ my Lord
i want to be like Jesus
my recompense and my reward
that I may be like Jesus
His Spirit fill my hungering soul
His power all my life control
my deepest prayer my highest goal
that I may de like Jesus
that I may be like Jesus
that I may be like Jesus
(I want to be more like Jesus – Keith Green)
as each day passes by
i feel my love run dry
i get so weary, worn
and tossed ‘round in the storm
i’m to others needs
and I’m tired of planting seeds
i seem to have a wealth
of so many thoughts about myself
i want to
i need to
be more like Jesus
i want to
i need to
be more like Him
remember
there’s no greater love
than to lay down your life, no
no greater love
than to lay down your life
for a friend
