Verse 1 ~ More like the Master I would ever be,      More of His meekness, more humility; More zeal to labor, more courage to be true,      More consecration for the work He bids me do. Refrain ~ Take Thou my heart, I would be Thine alone;      Take Thou my heart, and make it all Thine own. Purge me from sin, O Lord, I now implore,      Wash me and keep me Thine forevermore. Purge me from sin, O Lord, I now implore,      Wash me and keep me Thine forevermore. Verse 2 ~ More like the Master is my daily prayer;      More strength to carry the crosses I must bear; More earnest effort to bring His kingdom in;      More of His Spirit, the wanderers to win. Verse 3 ~ More like the Master I would live and grow;      More of His love to others I would show; More self denial, like His in Galilee,      More like the Master I long to ever be.
