284. Following Him

1 Following Jesus day by day,
Following Him—His will obey,
Following Him, I cannot stray,
I’ll follow Him all the way.

Refrain:
Following Him, following Him,
Following Him by night and by day;
Following Him, following Him,
I’ll follow Him all the way.

2 Following Him through all the night,
Following Him into the light,
Following Him, ’tis always right,
I’ll follow Him all the way. [Refrain]

3 Following Him through joy or woe,
Following Him, in grace to grow,
Following Him, His love to know,
I’ll follow Him all the way. [Refrain]
