kelly willard - follow me lyrics

i traveled down a lonely road
and no one seemed to care
the burden on my weary back
had bowed me to despair
i oft’ complained to jesus
how folks were treating me
and then i heard him say so tenderly

“my feet were also weary
upon the calvary road
the cross became so heavy
i fell beneath the load
be faithful, weary pilgrim
the morning i can see
just lift your cross and follow close to me”

i work so hard for jesus
i often boast and say
i’ve sacrificеd a lot of things
to walk this narrow way
i gave up fame and fortune
i’m worth a lot to thee
and thеn i hear him gently say to me

“i left the throne of glory
and counted it but lost
my hands were nailed in anger
upon a cruel cross
but now we’ll make the journey
with your hands safe in mine
just lift your cross and follow close to me”
oh jesus, if i die upon
a foreign field someday
t’would be no more than love demands
no less could i repay
no greater love hath mortal man
than for a friend to die
these are the words i heard him say to me

“if but a cup of water
i place within your hand
then just a cup of water
is all that i demand”
but if by death to living
they can thy glory see
i’ll take my cross and follow close to thee
i’ll take my cross and follow close to thee
close to thee
