More like Jesus

"It is impossible to suggest that a person can encounter the holy God of Scripture and 
be saved without also coming to grips with the horrible nature of his own sin, and 
consequently longing to turn from it."-unknown 

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after 
righteousness: for they shall be filled.
 -Matthew 5:6



MORE LIKE JESUS

More like Jesus would I be, let my Savior dwell with me;
Fill my soul with peace and love—make me gentle as a dove;
More like Jesus, while I go, pilgrim in this world below;
Poor in spirit would I be; let my Savior dwell in me.

If He hears the raven’s cry, if His ever watchful eye
Marks the sparrows when they fall, surely He will hear my call:
He will teach me how to live, all my sinful thoughts forgive;
Pure in heart I still would be—let my Savior dwell in me.


More like Jesus when I pray, more like Jesus day by day,
May I rest me by His side, where the tranquil waters glide.
Born of Him through grace renewed, by His love my will subdued,
Rich in faith I still would be—let my Savior dwell in me.

-by Fanny Crosby

Create in me a clean heart, O God; and 
renew a right spirit within me. 
-Psalm 51:10
