Come Follow Me

 

“For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.” 1 Peter 2:21

 

“Come follow Me,”

Lord, I hear You say,

“Come follow Me,

Follow now My way.”

 ~*~

“Straight and narrow

Is this way I lead,

It leads to Heaven,

I fill every need.”

 ~*~

“The flowers of virtue

Blossom and grow

Upon the sacred way

Which I now go.”

 ~*~

“Storms may come,

But I calm them all,

I promise to carry

When you stumble or fall.”

 ~*~

“So come follow Me,

Stay nigh unto My side;

Come follow Me,

With Me do abide.”

~*~

“Treasures I have for you,

So many in store;

How can I do less

For the child I adore?”

 ~*~

“Take My hand, daughter,

See how I love you?

I will show you the way,

Teach you what to do.”

 ~*~

“Shower You with love,

Surround You with grace,

Lead you with light,

Warm with My embrace,”

 ~*~

“For no path is like this,

None is perfect like Mine;

Surely it is a pathway

Sacred and divine.”

~*~

“So come follow Me,

Cling to My hand,

Faithfully I lead you

To the Promised Land.”

~*~ 

Yes, follow You, Jesus,

This I promise to do;

How can I do any less

When I adore You?

 ~*~

Straight and narrow

Is this way You lead,

You take me to Heaven,

You fill every need.

 ~*~

So I will follow You,

I savor all You say;

O Jesus, I will follow You

On Your wondrous way.
