Just Like...
Am I just like a Pharisee
Stuck in my stubborn ways
Not acting with pure motives
Rather, seeking earthly praise
My Savior right in front of me
Yet, I refuse to see
Instead, convinced I know better
Just like a Pharisee
Am I just like an Isrealite
Who grumbles and complains
In spite of seeing miracles
My worship quickly wanes
Often, I wander aimlessly
Not knowing which way's right
Instead of walking God's clear path
Just like an Isrealite
Am I just like the sinners
That I read in bible verse
That lie, and cheat, and disobey
Even things that are far worse
When fighting against the Lord's will
They never are the winners
Is that the way that I behave
Am I just like those sinners
Am I just like the hypocrite
Who sits in the next pew
Hearing how they should live their life
But that's not what they do
For, I hear the same message, too
Yet, sin in spite of it
Then, judge them for the way they act
Just like a hypocrite
I want to be just like Jesus
In all I do or say
For I know that to follow him
Is always the best way
Lord, help me live a godly life
With word from you, it's thus
One filled with love and mercy
A life that's just like Jesus
