Like Him
Wanna be like Him
wanna be like Him, yes.
He was tempted, but He never gave in
Even in anger, it wasn't in Him to come out of who He was
He was setting an example for us
King of all, but He kept it humble
falsely accuse, never said a mumbling word in His own defense
betrayed with just one kiss
Pre-Then there's me, full of sinful pride
you know I tried
but now I gotta die 'cause
I wanna live (like Him), give (like Him), forgive all my enemies
just like Him, like Him
if it means that I have to carry my cross and be willing to suffer
then I will, like Him
wanna be like Him
I heard a rumor and I got offended
I know just where it started, oh I'm 'bout to end it
with just one call, trust me I could end it all
But wait, that's the pride that must be broken
only way it's gonna happen is when I know Him
I've gotta learn His way, but that's impossible without faith
So here I am, don't wanna be who I've been
Don't wanna do me I wanna do Him!
I wanna live (like Him), give (like Him), forgive all my enemies
just like Him, like Him
if it means that I have to carry my cross and be willing to suffer
then I will, like Him
wanna be like Him
Bridge
I'm like a baby starting with nothing
Hearing my Daddy tell me I'm something
Making me feel like I'm His only child
Everyday revealing more and more
Just who He is in me and who I am to be I wanna
I wanna live (like Him), give (like Him), forgive all my enemies
just like Him, like Him
if it means that I have to carry my cross and be willing to suffer
then I will, like Him
wanna be like Him
Just Like Him, Like Him
wanna be like Him, yes.
