Teach Me to Be Like You

Lord, I've got to ask You to forgive me
I guess I tried to take things into my own hands
I've just got to know that You're still with me
I guess I tried to prove I could be my own man

But these steps that I've been taking
They don't move me anywhere
And all these hearts that I've been breaking
As if I really don't seem to care
It's not like You
Teach me to be like You
Oh, Lord, I want to be more like You

Lord, it's been a long and lonely journey
I thought right from the start I was hearing from You
Now I've got to know that You rеally me
In spite of all the timеs I've strayed from You

But these steps that I've been taking
They don't move me anywhere
And all these hearts that I've been breaking
As if I really don't seem to care
It's not like You
Teach me to be like You
Oh, I want to be more like You

I never believed
I could get far away from You
(Lord, I want to come back home)
But here I stand, my Lord
I'm wondering what to do
(Whatever I must do)
So I can be more like You
(To be like You)
Teach me to be like You, sweet Jesus
I want to be more like You
Teach me to be like You

I never believed
I could get far away from You
(Oh, but here I stand)
But here I stand, my Lord
I'm wondering what to do
(Whatever I must do)
So I can be more like You
(I need to be like You)
I want to be more like You
(I want to be like You)
Oh, Lord, I want to be more like You
(I want to be like You)

Teach me to be like You, oh, Jesus
I need to be more like You, oh, yes
(I want to be like You)
I need to be more like You, every day
(Teach me to be like You)
I need to be more like You, yeah
(I want to be like You)
Teach me, Lord, how to be more like You
Oh, Lord, teach me to love like You
(I want to love like You)
Sweet Lord, I need to be more like You...
