Music: Harold A. Miller, 1931

Teach, me, Father, what to say

Teach me, Father, how to pray

Teach me all along the way

How to be like Jesus

Refrain

I would be like Jesus

I would be like Jesus

Help me, Lord, to daily grow

More and more like Jesus

Teach me as the days go by

Teach me not to reason why

Teach me that to do and die

Is to be like Jesus

Refrain

I would be like Jesus

I would be like Jesus

Help me, Lord, to daily grow

More and more like Jesus

Teach me that the time is short

teach me how to live and work

Teach me that to never shirk

Is to be like Jesus

Refrain

I would be like Jesus

I would be like Jesus

Help me, Lord, to daily grow

More and more like Jesus

Teach me how we may be one

Like the Father and the Son

And when all is overcome

I will be like Jesus

Refrain

I would be like Jesus

I would be like Jesus

Help me, Lord, to daily grow

More and more like Jesus
