"I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the
fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his
death, and so, somehow, to attain the resurrection
from the dead." - Philippians 3:10-11
|
O to be like Thee, Father in Heaven
This is my constant longing and prayer
Gladly I'll forfeit all of earth's treasures
Father, Thy perfect likeness to wear
O to be like Thee! (O to be like Thee)
O to be like Thee-!
Father in Heaven, pure as Thou Art
Make me a child after Thine own heart
Make me a child after Thine own heart
O to be like Thee, full of compassion,
Loving, fogiving, tender, and kind
Helping the helpless and cheering the fainting,
seeking the wandering sinner to find
O to be like Thee! (O to be like Thee)
O to be like Thee-!
Father in Heaven, pure as Thou Art
Make me a child after Thine own heart
Make me a child after Thine own heart
O to be like Thee, while I am pleading,
Pour out Thy Spirit, fill with Thy love,
Make me a temple fit for Thy dwelling,
Fit me for life and heaven above
O to be like Thee! (O to be like Thee)
O to be like Thee-!
Father in Heaven, pure as Thou Art
Make me a child after Thine own heart-
Make me a child after Thine own heart
