A heart like Jesus'

Lord, give me a heart like Jesus’
To seek and save the lost
By bringing them to Calvary,
To the foot of the Cross…

Their burdens will fall
As they surrender all!
Give me a heart like Jesus’...

Lord, give me a heart like Jesus’
To lift the downtrodden and weak;
A heart of compassion and mercy,
A heart that for sinners weeps…

Lord, give me a heart like Jesus’
Who was moved by the multitudes;
Like a  lost flock of sheep
A shepherd they needed
So the Good Shepherd followed them all…

Lord, give me a heart like Jesus’
Who, perspiring in the garden, prayed;
Great drops of blood from His tired brow fell
As on Him the world’s sins were laid…

Lord, give me a heart like Jesus’
As on Calvary’s Cross He hung;
God’s Love displayed to the Universe
While the death knell of sin He rung…
