Those who say they live in God
should live their lives as Jesus did
(1 John 2:6; NLT).
1. Father,
May I follow Christ,
And, like him, take your narrow way.
2. Father,
May I worship Christ,
And, like him, talk with you each day.
3. Father,
May I live in Christ,
And, like him, serve through all I do.
4. Father,
May I die with Christ,
And, like him, reunite with you.
When Christ appears, we shall be like him
(1 John 3:2; NIV).
