Oh I have days
I lose the fight
Try my best
But just don't get it right
Where I talk a talk
that I don't walk
And miss the moments
right before my eyes
Somebody with a hurt
that I could have helped
Somebody with a hand
that I could have held
When I just can't see
past myself
Lord help me be
A little more like mercy
A little more like grace
A little more like kindness
goodness love and faith
A little more like patience
A little more like peace
A little more like Jesus
A little less like me
Yeah there's no denying
I have changed
'Cause I've been saved from
who I used to be
But even at my best
I must confess
I still need help to
see the way You see
Somebody with a hurt
that I could have helped
Somebody with a hand
that I could have held
When I just can't see
past myself
Lord help me be
A little more like mercy
A little more like grace
A little more like kindness
goodness love and faith
A little more like patience
A little more like peace
A little more like Jesus
A little less like me
Oh I wanna feed the beggar
on the street
Learn to be Your
hands and feet
Freely give what I receive
Lord help me be
I wanna put You first
above all else
Love my neighbor
as myself
In the moments no one sees
Lord help me be
A little more like mercy
A little more like grace
A little more like kindness
goodness love and faith
A little more like patience
A little more like peace
A little more like Jesus
Oh a little less like me
A little more of livin'
everything I preach
A little more like Jesus
A little less like me
Oh a little less like me
