Songs of Sovereign Grace ‎#131

131. I Will Follow On

1 Where my Saviour leads me in this changing world below,
I will follow on, I will follow on;
While He walks before me, tho’ the way I do not know,
I will follow on, follow on.

Refrain:
Follow on,
Follow on,
Follow where the Saviour in the way before has gone,
Till I rest beside Him, up in heaven’s golden dawn,
I will follow on, follow on.

2 Tho’ the world entreats me and though pleasures bid me stay,
I will follow on, I will follow on;
Tho’ the road be rugged, and tho’ thorny be the way,
I will follow on, follow on. [Refrain]

3 Tho’ my friends forsake me and I seem to be alone,
I will follow on, I will follow on;
Knowing that my Saviour, can for everything atone,
I will follow on, follow on. [Refrain]

4 Tho’ He leads thro’ sunshine till I walk on earth no more,
I will follow on, I will follow on;
Or tho’ darkness hide me, till I reach the golden shore,
I will follow on, follow on. [Refrain]
