More Like Jesus

To emulate my mother is fine
To imitate my sister sometimes
To accomplish what my brother has achieved;
I would rather be more like Thee
(it's my desire to be more like Thee)
I want to more like Thee
(I want to walk, I want to talk like He talked)
Oh I want to be more
(I want to pray like Jesus prayed each and everyday)
Oh I want to be more, be more like Thee
To win a Grammy one day
To see my name in lights on Broadway;
These things don't really matter to me
I would rather be more like Thee
(I've gotta love my fellow man, Lord, I've got to lend a helping hand)
Oh, I want to be more
(I've got to stay holy, but Lord You've got to show me)
Oh, I want to be more, oh be more like Thee
Use me for Thy service each day
Every way, Lord, I pray
Walk like Jesus walked
Talk like Jesus talked
I want to be like Him
Pray like Jesus prayed
Each and every day
I want to be like Him
Love my fellow man
Lend a helping hand
I want to be more like Him
Stay holy
Lord, please show me
I want to be like Him
