Shane & Shane's 'Kind Like You' is a gentle prayer asking God to shape the singer into a person of kindness and forgiveness. The lyrics reflect on Jesus' example of loving even those who betrayed Him, especially at the cross, and express a desire to mirror that tender love. The song acknowledges personal struggles with forgiveness and pleads for divine help to love others the way God loves us. It's a simple, heartfelt worship piece that encourages believers to grow in grace and compassion.

You said be kind
Be kind to everyone
Forgiving them
Just like you have done
What about the times I feel betrayed
And I can't turn the other cheek
Make me kind
Kind like you
And in time
I could too
Learn to forgive
Like you've forgiven me
Help my heart love them tenderly
Oh you were kind
Kind to everyone
Forgiving them
You never threw a stone
What about the times you were betrayed
What about when you hung upon a tree
Make me kind
Kind like you
And in time
I could too
Learn to forgive
Like you've forgiven me
Help my heart love them tenderly
Tenderly oh tenderly
Oh help me love the way You love me
Tenderly oh tenderly
Oh help me love the way You love me
Tenderly oh tenderly
Oh help me love the way You love me
Tenderly oh tenderly
Oh help me love the way You love
Make me kind
Kind like you
And in time
I could too
Learn to forgive
Like you've forgiven me
Help my heart love them tenderly
