I will follow Je­sus,
He gent­ly bids me come;
He’s my bless­èd mas­ter,
And He will lead me home;
I will fol­low Je­sus,
Thro’ sun­shine and thro’ rain,
Morning, noon and ev­en­ing—
O’er mount­ain, hill or plain.

Refrain

I will fol­low Je­sus,
Yes, fol­low, fol­low on;
Follow in His foot­steps
Till I re­ceive the crown;
I will fol­low Je­sus
Wherever He may go,
Trusting in His good­ness,
He’ll guide me home, I know.

I will fol­low Je­sus,
Although the way be steep;
He will be my shep­herd,
And I will be His sheep;
I will fol­low Je­sus,
He is my on­ly guide;
In the hour of tri­al
He’ll help me stem the tide.

Refrain

I will fol­low Je­sus,
To yon­der realms above,
Flowing with life’s ri­ver,
The land of light and love;
I will fol­low Je­sus,
Till time shall cease to be,
Then I’ll fol­low Je­sus
Throughout eter­ni­ty.

Refrain
