254. I WILL FOLLOW THEE

Christ in Song,

1.
Jesus, I will follow thee,
For I hear thee calling me;
Loving, trusting, glad I come,
To let thee lead me home.

Chorus:
I will follow thee,
I will follow thee, 
I will follow thee
Wherever thou dost lead.

2.
Little eyes might lose the way,
Little feet might go astray;
I might weak and weary be,
But thou art strong for me.  [Chorus]

3.
Grief and want may be my foes,
Foolish sins my way oppose;
Full of courage I will be,
Whene'er I follow thee.  [Chorus]
