Imitate Christ’s Mildness lyrics

1. The greatest of men was our Lord Jesus Christ;
By pride or ambition he was not enticed
God's purpose gave him the most prominent part;
Yet, always he proved himself lowly in heart

2. All you who are toiling with burdensome cares
He bids you come under the yoke that he bears
Refreshment you'll find as the Kingdom you seek
Our Lord is mild-tempered; he favors the meek

3. 'All you are just brothers,' our Lord Jesus said
So never seek greatness; serve others instead
The mild and the meek to our God have great
Worth;
He promises they will inherit the earth
