Be Like You
[Verse 1]
To the One who had the right to life
But traded it for all my wrongs
To the King who deserved the highest praise
But came down to wash my feet

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna feel what you feel when
You raise the dead up from their sleep
I wanna know just what it means
To be love

[Chorus]
I wanna be like, be like You, Lord
I wanna walk like, talk like You do
With every breath I breathe, I want to love
Just like the One who made me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
You're the greatest revelation of love
You proved so in the life You lived, it's true
You bent down on one knee to look us in the eye
And say "You belong to me"
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna feel what you feel when
You raise the dead up from their sleep
I wanna know just what it means
To be love

[Chorus]
I'm gonna be like, be like You, Lord
I'm gonna walk like, talk like You do
With every breath I breathe, I want to love
Just like the One who made me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah

[Bridge]
You went to the farthest lengths, the greatest pain
The darkest night to show me just how
You won't stop at any cost
To save the ones You love
So I'm gonna run in Your footsteps
And I'm gonna dance in Your presence
With my heart in abandonment
I'm gonna be like, be like You, Lord
So I'm gonna run in Your footsteps
I'm gonna dance in Your presence
Oh, with my heart in abandonment
I'm gonna be like, be like You, Lord
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm gonna be like, be like You, Lord
I'm gonna walk like, talk like You do
With every breath I breathe, I'm gonna love
Just like the One who made me
I'm gonna be like, be like You, Lord
You made me to walk like, talk like You do
With every breath I breathe, I'm gonna be
Just like the One who made me
