Nothing worldly shall enthrall me,
I would be like Jesus.

Be like Jesus - this my song,
In the home and in the throng;
Be like Jesus, all day long,
I would be like Jesus.

I would be like Jesus;
That my soul may serve Him better,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain]

I would be like Jesus;
Telling o’er and o’er the story,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain]

That His words “Well done” may greet me,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain] Topics: Walking with God Aspiration and Consecration Languages: English Tune Title: SPRING HILL
