More Like Christ

Charles W. Naylor (1903) • English

Primary Scripture: Philippians 3:13-14

Verse 1

More like Christ, my heart is praying, More like Christ from day to day; All His graces rich displaying, While I tread my pilgrim way.

Chorus

More like Christ, every day, More like Christ, my heart doth say; Yes, more like Christ, More like Christ every day.

Verse 2

More like Christ in deeds of kindness, And in all the words I say; Yearning for the souls in blindness, Who are going far astray.

Chorus

More like Christ, every day, More like Christ, my heart doth say; Yes, more like Christ, More like Christ every day.

Verse 3

More like Christ in burden-bearing, Helping all the sad and weak; Tears and sorrows gladly sharing, Others’ pleasure would I seek.

Chorus

More like Christ, every day, More like Christ, my heart doth say; Yes, more like Christ, More like Christ every day.

Verse 4

More like Christ in self-denial, Seeking not a life of ease; Patient in the depths of trial, That my Savior I may please.

Chorus

More like Christ, every day, More like Christ, my heart doth say; Yes, more like Christ, More like Christ every day.
