I'm following Jesus
As I walk day to day;
I walk close behind Him
As He shows me the way.
Though at times I may tarry
Or stray off the path,
He quietly calls me
Til I follow at last.
At times I get weary
And ask, "Aren't we there yet?"
But He patiently tells me
That there's no need to fret.
And if I should stumble
Along the pathway at all,
He's always right there
To pick me up from my fall.
Yes, I'm following Jesus --
Walking in His will;
And I can see Heaven
Just over that hill!

Then He said to them all, "If anyone
desires to come after Me, let him deny
himself, and take up his cross daily,
and follow Me. (Luke 9:23)
