I Want to Be More Like Jesus (Gabriel)

lyricist: Charles Gabriel, 1894
Composer: George Crosby

Thro’ all the chang­ing scenes of life

I want to be more like Je­sus!

In strength or weak­ness

peace or strife

I want to be more like Je­sus!

More

more like Je­sus

I would ev­er be;

More

more like Je­sus

I want to be more like Je­sus.

As from His word I dai­ly read

I want to be more like Je­sus!

For grace and pa­tience is my need

I want to be more like Je­sus!

When cross­es weigh my spir­it down

I want to be more like Je­sus!

And when

by faith

I view my crown

I want to be more like Je­sus!

When by temp­ta­tions tossed about

I want to be more like Je­sus!

When sink­ing in the sea of doubt

I want to be more like Je­sus!

While I can sing

my song shall be:

I want to be more like Je­sus!

And thro’ a long eter­ni­ty

I want to be more like Je­sus!
