The  very things I hate,  I end up doing
The  things I want to  do, I just don't do.
Lord  it seems so sad, why  am I so bad?
When  in my heart I only want to be like you.
The  very ones I love  I end up hurting,
The  ones I want to  help I pass right by.
Now  I want to be,  finally  set free
The  grace you've shown, the love I've known,
Please  let it shine through me.
I want  to love  them, the way  you do,
I want  to serve them,  by  serving  you.
Lord  how I know your tender  heart must be broken,
By  all those unkept promises  I've made,
The  question still prevails, please  take away the veil,
About  how you forgive, and still you live inside  when I fail.
I want  to love  them all, the way  you do,
I want  to serve them, by serving you.
I  want to be like you; Jesus I do.
I want  to love them  all, the way  you do,
I want  to serve  them, by serving you.
Yes,  I want to be like you; Jesus I do.
