1 I will follow Jesus, He gently bids me come;
He’s my blessed master, and He will lead me home;
I will follow Jesus, thro’ sunshine and thro’ rain,
Morning, noon and evening— o’er mountain, hill or plain.
Refrain:
I will follow Jesus, yes, follow, follow on;
Follow in His footsteps till I receive the crown;
I will follow Jesus wherever He may go,
Trusting in His goodness, He’ll guide me home, I know.
2 I will follow Jesus, although the way be steep;
He will be my shepherd, and I will be His sheep;
I will follow Jesus, He is my only guide;
In the hour of trial He’ll help me stem the tide. [Refrain]
3 I will follow Jesus, to yonder realms above,
Flowing with life’s river, the land of light and love;
I will follow Jesus, till time shall cease to be,
Then I’ll follow Jesus throughout eternity. [Refrain]
