Grant me your holiness Make me devoted deep within I plead for patience in my trials And more sorrow for my sin A deeper faith in you Dear Lord, please give me everyday Let me find joy in my journey And more purpose when I pray This is my prayer Lord, when this day is through Was I a little less like me And a little more like you My lone desire In all I say or do Was I a little less like me And a little more like you Give me more gratitude Help me to love you even more And take pride only in your glory And trust only in your word Let me shed sorrow's tears When others pain, when others grieve And may my neighbor please see Jesus Every time that they see me This is my prayer Lord, when this day is through Was I a little less like me And a little more like you My lone desire In all I say or do Was I a little less like me And a little more like you This is my prayer Lord, when this day is through Was I a little less like me And a little more like you Was I a little less like me And a little more like you
