I want to be . . .
a sweet-smelling savor
to my God, I want to be
just like my Savior.
I want to learn,
all about self-denial
I want endurance
when facing any trial.
I want to serve,
not expecting back
I want to give
what others lack.
I want to be faithful,
even if I suffer
I want patience
to be my soul’s buffer.
I want to love,
with a quite gentleness
I want to be humble
full of forgiveness.
I want to pray,
through all things
I want the purity
His Spirit brings.
I want to be . . .
just like my Savior
I want to have His . . .
sweet-loving nature!
~~~~~~
“Be ye therefore followers of God,
as dear children;
And walk in love, as Christ also hath
loved us, and hath given himself for us
an offering and a sacrifice to God for
a sweet smelling savour.”
