Representative Text

1 My soul o'erflows with joy and peace,
Where Jesus shows His face,
And bids all doubt and sorrows cease,
And saves me by His grace!

Chorus:
O will you follow on?
O will you follow on?
O will you follow where He leads?
O will you follow on?

2 Thro' shadows deep, He lights the way,
And leads my soul along,
To mansions fair and endless day,
The land of praise and song. [Chorus]

3 When to death's narrow stream I come,
Tho' dark the wave and cold,
My Lord doth call my spirit home,
Into His peaceful fold. [Chorus]

4 All glory to His precious name,
Who gave His life for me;
His grace, His goodness I'll proclaim,
Thro' all eternity. [Chorus]
