To Be Like Him

From Beth­l’hem’s man­ger

Came forth a strang­er

On earth I long to be like Him.

My faith­ful Sav­ior

How rich His fa­vor!

On earth I long to be like Him.

To be like Je­sus

to be like Je­sus

On earth I long to be like Him;

All thru life’s jour­ney

From earth to glo­ry

I on­ly ask to be like Him.

Serene and ho­ly

Obedient

low­ly

On earth I long to be like Him.

By grace for­giv­en

An heir of Heav­en

I on­ly ask to be like Him.
