To Be Like Christ


Why fill our hearts and minds
With what doesn’t edify
And doesn’t help our spirits grow
To be truly unified

What we believe in our minds
We should believe in our hearts
So we will speak with sincerity
What the word of God imparts

For as we meditate on it
It will wash over our minds
So our thinking will become Christ-like
Leaving worldly thoughts behind

For we can develop the mind of Christ
When on the word we feed
But we need to move on from infant milk
To the solids that we need

It’s then our spirits can truly grow
And our minds can be transformed
To this world and its worldly ways
We no longer are conformed

But we’re conformed to Jesus Christ
And we walk in step with Him
We desire Him above all else
And have His life within
