As each day passes by
I feel my love run dry
I get so weary, worn
And tossed around in the storm
Well I'm blind to all his needs
And I'm tired of planting seeds
I seem to have a wealth
Of so many thoughts about myself
I want to, I need to, be more like Jesus
I want to, I need to, be more like him
Our father's will was done
By giving us his son
Who paid the highest cost
To point us to the cross
And when I think of him
Taking on the whole world's sin
I take one look at me
Compared to what I'm called to be
I want to, I need to, be more like Jesus
I want to, I need to, be more like him
Remember, there's no greater love
Then to lay down your life for a friend
The end of all my prayers
Is to care like my lord cares
My one and only goal
His image in my soul
Yes, my weakness is revealed
When by his stripes I'm healed
He's faithful and he's true
To complete the work he begins in you
