BE LIKE JESUS.
“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.”
To be like Jesus! O how sweet;
Living on earth as Jesus did—
Never to speak one angry word,
But always do as one is bid.
To be like Jesus! he, dear child,
With God and man in favor grew,
Never was known to tell a lie,
But always spoke just what was true.
To be like Jesus! When, O Lord,
Thou givest a holy heart to me;
Never shall I delight to sin,
But always try to be like thee.
To be like Jesus! pure in thought,
And word, and deed; O help me, Lord,
Never thy Spirit more to grieve,
But always love thy holy Word.
To be like Jesus! O, how sweet!
When I go home to heaven above
Never shall I forget thee more,
But always dwell with thee in love.
