I Have One Deep, Supreme Desire,
That I May Be Like Jesus.
To This I Fervently Aspire,
That I May Be Like Jesus.
I Want My Heart His Throne To Be,
So That A Watching World May See
His Likeness Shining Forth In Me.
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
He Spent His Life In Doing Good;
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
In Lowly Paths Of Service Trod;
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
He Sympathised With Hearts Distressed,
He Spoke The Words That Cheered And Blessed,
He Welcomed Sinners To His Breast.
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
A Holy, Harmless Life He Led;
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
The Father’s Will, His Drink And Bread;
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
And When At Last He Comes To Die,
‘Forgive Them, Father,’ Hear Him Cry
For Those Who Taunt And Crucify.
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
O Perfect Life Of Christ, My Lord!
I Want To Be Like Jesus.
My Recompense And My Reward,
That I May Be Like Jesus.
His Spirit Fill My Hungering Soul,
His Power All My Life Control.
My Deepest Prayer, My Highest Goal,
That I May Be Like Jesus
