Lovely gardens near where I live
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:27
When God calls us to follow Him, it is not always into the lush gardens. Sometimes, He leads down paths that do not make sense. Occasionally, His calling involves risk or results in suffering. Wherever He leads, may we be willing to follow all the way, knowing that our Shepherd goes before us and never leads us astray. When He calls, will you follow?
Where He Leads Me, I Will Follow

VERSE #1
I can hear my Savior calling,
I can hear my Savior calling,
I can hear my Savior calling,
“Take thy cross and follow, follow Me.”
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
VERSE #2
I’ll go with Him thro’ the garden,
I’ll go with Him thro’ the garden,
I’ll go with Him thro’ the garden,
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
VERSE #3
I’ll go with Him thro’ the judgement
I’ll go with Him thro’ the judgement
I’ll go with Him thro’ the judgement
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
VERSE #4
He will give me grace and glory,
He will give me grace and glory,
He will give me grace and glory,
And go with me, with me all the way.
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
Where He leads me I will follow,
I’ll go with Him, with Him all the way.
Lord, Help me to be willing to follow You anywhere, no matter how often or how difficult the call. Give me grace and glory as I go.
