Lyrics
[Verse 1]
O! To be like Thee, blessed Redeemer,
This is my constant longing and prayer;
Gladly I'll forfeit all of earth's treasures,
Jesus, Thy perfect likeness to wear.
[Chorus]
O! To be like Thee, O! To be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art,
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fulness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.
[Verse 2]
O! To be like Thee, full of compassion,
Loving, forgiving, tender and kind,
Helping the helpless, cheering the fainting,
Seeking the wand'ring sinner to find.
[Chorus]
O! To be like Thee, O! To be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art,
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fulness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.
[Verse 3]
O! To be like Thee, lowly in spirit,
Holy and harmless, patient and brave;
Meekly enduring cruel reproaches,
Willing to suffer, others to save.
[Chorus]
O! To be like Thee, O! To be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art,
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fulness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.
[Verse 4]
O to be like Thee, Lord, I am coming,
Now to receive th' anointing divine,
All that I am and have I am bringing,
Lord, from this moment all shall be Thine.
[Chorus]
O! To be like Thee, O! To be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art,
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fulness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.
[Verse 5]
O! To be like Thee, while I am pleading,
Pour out Thy Spirit, fill with Thy love,
Make me a temple meet for Thy dwelling,
Fit me for life and heaven above.
[Chorus]
O! To be like Thee, O! To be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art,
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fulness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.
