[Verse 1]
           Am                                     C
I spent my   whole life chasing things that fade away,
   G                                Am
Trying to find my worth in what the world would say.
           Am                   C
I built my   walls up, tried to hide my scars,
        G                           Am
But you saw the broken pieces of my heart.
    Am                           C
You found me in the middle of my running,
           G                       Am
When I was lost and had nowhere to go.
    Am                           C
You didn't turn away from all my failures,
                 G                   G            G*
You just reached down and brought me home.
 
[Chorus 1]
                       Am     C
God, make me more like Jesus,
                     G          Dm
More humble when I'm winning,
                  Am      C
More honest in my living,
                    G           G
More faithful in my giving.
                  Am     C
Make me more like Jesus,
                   G            Dm
More loving to the broken, more careful
               Am      C                      G       G
With what I've spoken,   a heart that's fully open.
       Am                        C
Let my hands serve the way yours did,
            G                   Dm
Let my life   show the love you give,
     Am                         C
That love that never leaves us.   So, God make me,
G* G*                    Am      C      G        G
   God make me more like Jesus.
 
[Verse 2]
Am                                C
Teach me how to love the ones who hurt me,
G                              Am
Teach me how to turn the other cheek.
Am                              C
Help me be a light in someone's darkness,
G                                    Am
Help me show the world the love they need.
             Am                   C
Don't need a name that everyone remembers,
               G                Am
Don't need treasures that fade away.
       Am                       C
I just want my life to point to heaven
          G             G            G
And bring glory to your name.
 
[Chorus 2]
                       Am     C
God, make me more like Jesus,
                     G          Dm
More humble when I'm winning,
                  Am      C
More honest in my living,
                    G           G
More faithful in my giving.
                  Am     C
Make me more like Jesus,
                   G            Dm
More loving to the broken, more careful
               Am      C                      G          G
With what I've spoken,   a heart that's fully open.
       Am                        C
Let my hands serve the way yours did,
            G                   Dm
Let my life   show the love you give,
     Am                         C
That love that never leaves us.   So, God make me,
G* G*                    Am   C    G     G
   God make me more like Jesus.
          Am        C     G       G
More like Jesus

  Let me stop chasing these dreams
                            F
And losing sight of what is true.
                   G
I know it won't be easy,
                            Am       Am
But Jesus make me more like you.
          Am       Am*
More like you.

That love that never leaves us.   So, God make me,
G* G*                    Am    C      G
   God make me more like Jesus.
Dm                Am    C    G
Make me more like Jesus.
G                 Am   C   G    G   Am* G
Make me more like Jesus.
