Lyrics
Oh, I have days I lose the fight
Try my best, but just don't get it right
Well, 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
Oh 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
I've been changed from who I used to be
But even at my best, I must confess
I 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
Oh, 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, to feed the beggar on the street
Love to be Your hands and feet
Freely give what I receive
Lord, help me be
I want a friendship 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
A little less like me
A little more like living everything I preach
A little more like Jesus
A little less like me
Oh, a little less like me
