Last Sunday we started the service with the music video \u201cLess Like Me\u201d by Zach Williams. Cyndy noted that the song goes perfectly with our sermon “Fruit of the Spirit” sermon series and that you might want to look up and reflect on the lyrics. I couldn\u2019t agree more so I\u2019m saving you the trouble of looking it up and posting the video HERE<\/a> as well as posting the lyrics below. If you enjoyed this song, I encourage you to listen to more of Zach Williams music. Just ask siri<\/em> or alexa<\/em> to “Play songs by Zach Williams.”<\/p>\n

Less Like Me<\/strong> ~ Zach Williams<\/p>\n

Verse 1<\/h3>\n

Oh I have days I lose the fight
\nTry my best but just don’t get it right
\nWhere I talk a talk that I don’t walk
\nAnd miss the moments right before my eyes<\/p>\n

Pre-Chorus<\/h3>\n

Somebody with a hurt that I could have helped
\nSomebody with a hand that I could have held
\nWhen I just can’t see past myself
\nLord help me be<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/h3>\n

A little more like mercy,\u00a0A little more like grace
\nA little more like kindness goodness love and faith
\nA little more like patience,\u00a0A little more like peace
\nA little more like Jesus,\u00a0A little less like me<\/p>\n

Verse 2<\/h3>\n

Yeah there’s no denying I have changed
\nI’ve been saved from who I used to be
\nBut even at my best I must confess
\nI still need help to see the way You see<\/p>\n

Bridge<\/h3>\n

Oh to feed the beggar on the street
\nLove to be Your hands and feet
\nFreely give what I receive
\nLord help me be<\/p>\n

I want to put You first above all else
\nLove my neighbor as myself
\nIn the moments no one sees
\nLord help me be<\/p>\n

Ending<\/h3>\n

A little more I’m living
\nEverything I preach
\nA little more like Jesus
\nA little less like me<\/p>\n
