(African-American Traditional)

Verse:
To be like Jesus, to be like Jesus,
all I ask is to be like Him.
Through this hard trial from earth to glory,
oh how I long to be like Him.

Chorus:
(To be like Jesus,) to be like Jesus,
(to be like Him,) to be like Jesus,
(oh, how I long,) oh, how I long to be like Him.

(Jesus is ever humble and holy,) humble and holy,
(oh, how I long,) oh, how I long to be like Him.

Vamp 1:
Just like Him.

Oh, how I long.

Oh, how I long to be like Him.
