Originally a hymn written for the 25th anniversary celebration of the Cypress California Stake. It has become the stake anthem (in the hymn form) and continuously sung at stake conferences since 1996. This version is for SATB choir, piano accompaniment with flute or violin obligato. The third verse is arranged a cappella. It serves as an excellent special musical number during any worship service. Duration is approximately 2 minutes.
Lyrics: To lighten the burden of a down hearted soul; To bless with compassion that the wounded be whole; To speak words inspired that the Gospel be heard; Oh Lord, Savior, may I be like thee in word?
To be in thy service is the greatest of calls; To lift, love and comfort those whom trouble befalls; To ne'er turn away the hands that reach out in need; Oh Lord, Savior, may I be like thee in deed?
(Chorus) May I be like thee in word and thought? May I be like thee in deed? May I be as thou has gently taught? Oh Savior, may I be like thee?
To judge not another in a way that is wrong; To seek truth and wisdom that my faith may be strong; To humbly submit when by God's Spirit I'm taught; Oh Lord, Savior, may I be like thee in thought?
Chorus
