I'll Go Anywhere

Representative Text

1 I’ve made my choice my Lord to follow,
Anywhere He leadeth me;
By waters still or troubled sea,
If He my Guide will be.
I’ll be a true disciple,
And the cross for Him will bravely bear;
Yes, by His wondrous grace and guidance,
I’ll go anywhere.

Refrain:
I’ll go anywhere
If Jesus will my Leader be;
I’ll do and I’ll dare
If His guidance I can see;
His will shall be mine
My time and talents His to share,
When He speaks the word to follow
I’ll go anywhere.

2 I’ve consecrated all my talents,
To the service of the King;
And with His help I’m striving now,
Lost souls to Him to bring.
I’m on His side for victory,
Determined e’er to do and dare;
For He is with me, and with Jesus
I’ll go anywhere. [Refrain]

3 In shadow or in sunshine, Thou hast
Promised to be with me, Lord;
I’ll lean upon Thy promises,
And rest upon Thy word.
I’ll tell the blessed story,
Yes, to men Thy love I will declare;
My life shall be a life of service,
I’ll go anywhere. [Refrain]
