More Like You
by Joy Wieters

My perspective's always changing,
But still, it's always raining.
I just want to be more like You.
You've gotta show me what to do.
I want to be full of grace,
No prejudice to any race.
Peacefulness come rest in me.
What do they see when watching me?
May my faith be strong at last,
And immaturity be past.
I fail so terribly, you see,
Yet I want these things in me.
I fail so terribly, you know,
But that's the thing that helps me grow.
Joy spread life all through my veins,
Hope help lead me on this lane.
My conscience isn't always clear,
But through all this I know You're near.
Lord God, Dear Jesus, give me grace,
To gently present my case.
Your righteousness is above all,
You are true when my life falls.
Please stay here and sit with me,
I feel so good when I'm with Thee.
