Deep on My Heart Songtext
von The Wilds

Oh! to be like Thee, blessed Redeemer,
This is my constant longing and prayer;
Gladly I′ll forfeit all of earth's treasures, Jesus,
Thy perfect likeness to wear.

Oh! to be like Thee, oh! to be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art;
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fullness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.

Oh! to be like Thee, lowly in spirit,
Holy and harmless, patient and brave;
Meekly enduring cruel reproaches, Lord,
Willing to suffer, if others should be saved.


Oh! to be like Thee, full of compassion, Lord,
Loving, forgiving, tender and kind,
All that I am and have I am bringing, Lord.
Lord, from this moment all shall be Thine.

Oh! to be like Thee, while I am pleading,
Pour out Thy Spirit, fill with Thy love,
Make me a temple meet for Thy dwelling, Lord.
Fit me for life and Heaven above.

Oh! to be like Thee, oh! to be like Thee,
Blessed Redeemer, pure as Thou art;
Come in Thy sweetness, come in Thy fullness;
Stamp Thine own image deep on my heart.

Stamp Thine image deep
On my heart.
