I will follow Jesus,
wherever He leads
be it fields of clover
or ones full of weeds.
I will go after Him,
leave all behind me
so I can trust Him . . .
for what I cannot see.
I will follow Jesus,
my own cross I will bear
be it on stormy seas
or ones calm and fair.
I will stick by Him,
wherever He goes . . .
deny my very own life
for the one for me He chose.
I will follow Jesus,
right into His light
together the darkness
we will expose and fight!
~~~~~~~~
And when they had brought
their boats to land, they left
everything and followed him.
And calling the crowd to him
with his disciples, he said to them,
“If anyone would come after me,
let him deny himself and take up
his cross and follow me.
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying,
“I am the light of the world.
Whoever follows me
will not walk in darkness,
but will have the light of life.”
