Text:
How Can I Be Like Jesus?
“Come, follow Me . . .” (Luke 18:22)

How can I be like Jesus while on the earth?
How can I live His ways and heed His words?
How can I love the same as He loves me?
How can I be aware and help those who plead?

Follow His ev’ry step; go where He leads.
Love ev’ry friend alike, or enemy.
Lighten each burden shown from suff’ring souls.
Shepherd them to His side; He will make each whole.

How can my walk through life show God I care?
Will others know to trust so I can share?
How do I reach each one when in a crowd?
Can I still help these souls ev’n though sin abounds?

Follow His ev’ry step; go where He leads.
Give of your meager store when one’s in need.
Search for the lonely heart with eyes attuned.
Loving each child of God can lessen wounds.

How can I be like Jesus, ev’n as I am?
He gives sure promises; I am His lamb.
As I go where He leads, gath’ring His souls,
My love will shepherd them where Christ makes each whole.
