I hear my blessed Saviour say

1 I hear my blessed Saviour say:

“Follow me, follow me, follow me;”

His voice is calling all the day,

“Follow me, follow me, follow me;

For thee I trod the bitter way,

For thee I gave my life away,

And drank the gall thy debt to pay,

Follow me, follow me, follow me.”

2 “Tho’ thou hast sinn’d, I’ll pardon thee,

Follow me, follow me, follow me;

From ev’ry sin I’ll set thee free,

Follow me, follow me, follow me;

In all Thy changing life I’ll be

Thy God, thy guide on land and sea,

Thy bliss thro’ all eternity,

Follow me, follow me, follow me.”

3 “Bring unto me thy many cares,

Follow me, follow me, follow me;

Thy heavy load my arm upbears,

Follow me, follow me, follow me;

Lean on my breast, dismiss thy fears,

And trust me thro’ thy future years,

My hand shall wipe away all tears,

Follow me, follow me, follow me.”
