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