570. I have decided to follow Jesus

1 I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus,
No turning back, no turning back.

2 The world behind me, the cross before me;
the world behind me, the cross before me;
the world behind me, the cross before me,
No turning back, no turning back.

3 Though none go with me, I still will follow;
though none go with me, I still will follow;
though none go with me, I still will follow,
No turning back, no turning back.

4 Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
No turning back, no turning back.
