I’ll Follow Thee
My Savior, let me hear Thy voice tonight,
I’ll follow Thee, I’ll follow Thee;
The clouds that overhang my way, obscure
the light,
And all is dark to me.
I’d hear Thy voice above the tempest’s shriek;
I’ll follow Thee, I’ll follow Thee;
And though my sight be dim, my spirit weak,
I’ll trust, though naught I see.
I’d feel Thy arm, supporting in the dark;
I’ll follow Thee, I’ll follow Thee;
For Thou canst fan to flame, faith’s sinking
spark,
And seal my loyalty.
I shall not sink, dear Lord, when Thou’rt my
guide,
I’ll follow Thee; I’ll follow Thee;
Though lashed by heavy waves, on ev’ry side,
I’m safe, when Thou’rt with me.
