YouTube video: O, To Be Like Thee - hymn

Text:
Our Savior, Jesus, ministered to the sick and lame.
We can also follow Him, shepherding the same.
Searching for the ninety-nine and each single soul,
He showed us the path to God . . . our celestial home.

To be like Thee, dear Lord above, is the gift we seek.
Grant us charity like Thee . . . O, to be like Thee.

Our Savior, Jesus, met each lack, granting mortal need.
Multiplying fish and loaves was his gift to feed.
When we answer ev’ry call to the least of these,
We stay on the cov’nant path, serving willingly.

To be like Thee, dear Lord above, is the gift we seek.
Grant us charity like Thee . . . O, to be like Thee.

Our Savior, Jesus, wept with those shedding heart-felt tears.
Then He knelt and prayed to God . . . “Bless each soul so dear.
Grant each child thy wond’rous love; heal each broken heart.”
Miracles will come from Him as we do our part.

To be like Thee, dear Lord above, is the gift we seek.
Grant us charity like Thee . . . O, to be like Thee.
