We give ourselves to follow the churches,
|
|
| 1. | We give ourselves to follow the churches, |
| | Oneness in Christ display; |
| | Follow His move in all of the churches, |
| | Stand fast as one this way. |
| | We must follow the Spirit |
| | In all simplicity. |
| | In our spirit is Jesus- |
| | He follows perfectly! |
| 2. | We give ourselves to follow the followers, |
| | By this we truly learn; |
| | Never desiring to be the leaders, |
| | But to the Spirit turn. |
| 3. | We give ourselves the flock's steps to follow, |
| | Knowing the Shepherd's care. |
| | Now in the churches Jesus is leading |
| | And He is speaking there. |
| 4. | We give ourselves to Thee, O Lord Jesus, |
| | Never to turn aside; |
| | Where'er the Lamb goes, there we would |
| | follow, |
| | Follow whate'er betide. |
| 5. | We give ourselves to enter the kingdom, |
| | That marriage feast, with Him; |
| | Come persecution, suffering, and trials, |
| | Still we will enter in. |
| 6. | Christ want some followers here in the |
| | churches, |
| | Followers of whom to say: |
| | "These saw My purpose, followed Me |
| | wholly"- |
| | May we be those today! |
