I Want To Be Like You
I long to be like you, Lord
In all I say and do,
Giving my life to you, Lord
Doing everything through you
Living in the power of your spirit
Being guided by your word,
Letting you light shine through me,
Using the spirit's sword.
I want to be like you,
I want to be like you,
I want to live every day
Living like you
Casting my burdens upon you,
Knowing your peace within,
Growing in grace and in knowledge,
Running the race to win.
Praising you every moment,
Lifting my voice to sing,
Doing whatever you tell me,
Worshipping you, my King.
I want to be like you,
I want to be like you,
I want to live every day
Living like you
Knowing the love of the Father,
Doing his glorious will,
Trusting him, like you did, Lord,
Hearing his peace be still.
Entering the heavenly city,
Closed are it's gates to sin,
Sharing your Father's glory
When the saints go marching in.
