May We Be More Like Thee

With humble hearts, we join in song
To worship and to pray.
Our Lord, Redeemer, Son of God
Who to our rescue came.
We praise Thy life and sacrifice;
We strive more earnestly

In thought, in word, in deed, O Lord,
May we be more like Thee.

As pilgrims on a sea of strife,
Oft wounded lost and weak,
We fast and pray for heaven’s strength,
Thy help, Thy grace, we seek.
We place our burdens at Thy feet;
We yoke ourselves to Thee,
And with this heartfelt plea, O Lord,
May we be more like Thee.

With broken hearts we supplicate,
We cast away our sin,
Our sorrow, and our suffering,
To find the joy within.
Repentance brings us lasting peace;
New eyes that we may see,
Forgiveness teaches us to love,
Dear Savior, more like Thee.

When in Thy arms forever clasped
Safe in Thy tender care.
Then changed by Thy redeeming grace,
At last to be joint heirs.
We’ll join in song with heav’nly throngs
And dwell with Thee above.
In faith and hope and charity,
We’ll feel Thy endless love.

We’ll join in song with heav’nly throngs

And dwell with Thee above

In faith and hope and charity,

We’ll feel Thy endless love,

Thy endless love.
