I Would Be Like Thee

Author: Rev. W. A. Schell Hymnal: Great Revival Hymns No. 2 #18 (1913) First Line: I would be like thee, Jesus, my Lord Refrain First Line: I would be like Thee, filled with Thy grace Lyrics: 1 I would be like Thee, Jesus, my Lord, Gentle and loving, trusting Thy word; Lowly in spirit, pure in my heart, Living each day from all evil apart. Refrain: I would be like Thee, filled with Thy grace, Till in Thy beauty I look on Thy face; I would be like Thee, lost in Thy love, I would be like Thee in heaven above. 2 I would be like Thee, humble in mind, Growing more earnest, faithful and kind; Seeking for souls, to save them from sin, And for Thy kingdom their service to win. [Refrain] 3 I would be like Thee, speaking the truth, Giving my life to God in my youth; Listening for Thy message to me, Spending my best days in working for Thee. [Refrain] 4 I would be like Thee when I am tried, Crushing out sin, temptation, and pride; All Thy commandments would I obey, Learning Thy will, Thee to follow alway. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I would be like thee, Jesus, my Lord]
