Lyrics

Verse 1

Earthly pleasures vainly call me; I would be like Jesus; Nothing worldly shall enthrall me; I would be like Jesus.

Refrain

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

Verse 2

He has broken every fetter, I would be like Jesus; That my soul may serve Him better, I would be like Jesus.

Refrain

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

Verse 3

All the way from earth to glory, I would be like Jesus; Telling o'er and o'er the story, I would be like Jesus.

Refrain

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

Verse 4

That in heaven He may meet me, I would be like Jesus; That His words "Well done" may greet me, I would be like Jesus.

Refrain

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