To be like Jesus

Post by SingerForGod » Sun Oct 10, 2010 4:10 am

This seems to maybe be a chorus. I found the following.

To Be Like Jesus

To be like Jesus
To be like Jesus
All I ask - to be like Him
All through life's journey
From earth to glory
All I ask - to be like Him.

Found a copy of the sheet music for this but it wouldn't let me post the music parts. Sorry.

TO BE LIKE JESUS
Traditional

To be like Jesus,
To be like Jesus!
My desire - to be like Him!
All through life's journey
From earth to glory,
My desire - to be like Him.

To Be Like Jesus

He lifted up the fallen man, He gave the world a helping hand,
His heart was touched each time He saw a soul in need;
Displaying kindness everywhere, Mercy and love was His to share,
And like this Man of Galilee I want to be.

chorus
To be like Jesus, To be like Jesus, All I ask to be like Him.
All thro' life's journey from earth to Glory, All I ask to be like Him.

His look of love went everywhere, And lives were changed when He was there,
Hungry eyes and hungry souls felt His embrace.
He stooped to mend each crippled child, His healing touch was strong but mild,
and like this Man of Galilee I want to be.

I remember the first verse as:

From Bethlehem's manger, came forth a stranger,
on Earth I long, to be like him.
Serene and holy, obedient lowly,
on Earth I long (oh I long), to be like him.


I always loved that one!

I grew up hearing the chorus like this:

To be like Jesus
To be like Jesus
On earth I long to be like him
all through life's journey
on earth to glory
I only ask to be like him
