More Like Jesus (Stillman)

I want to be more like Je­sus

And fol­low Him day by day;

I want to be true and faith­ful

And ev­ery com­mand ob­ey.

More and more like Je­sus

I would ev­er be;

More and more like Je­sus

My Sav­ior who died for me.

I want to be kind and gen­tle

To those who are in dis­tress;

To com­fort the brok­en heart­ed

With sweet words of ten­der­ness.

I want to be meek and low­ly

Like Je­sus

our friend and king;

I want to be strong and ear­nest

And souls to the Sav­ior bring.

I want to be pure and ho­ly

As pure as the crys­tal snow;

I want to love Je­sus dear­ly

For Je­sus loves me

I know.
