Author: Mary B. C. Slade Hymnal: Christian Hymns #245 (1935) First Line: Sweetly, Lord, have we heard Thee calling Refrain First Line: Footprints of Jesus, that make the pathway glow Lyrics: 1 Sweetly, Lord, have we heard Thee calling,
Come, follow Me!
And we see where Thy footprints falling
Lead us to Thee.
Chorus:
Footprints of Jesus, that make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus where’er they go.
2 Tho' they lead o’er the cold, dark mountains,
Seeking His sheep;
Or along by Siloam’s fountains,
Helping the weak: [Chorus]
3 If they lead thro' the temple holy,
Preaching the word;
Or in homes of the poor and lowly,
Serving the Lord: [Chorus]
4 If Thy way and its sorrows sharing,
We go again,
Up the slope of the hillside, bearing
Our Cross of pain: [Chorus]
5 Then at last, when on high He sees us,
Our journey done,
We will rest where the steps of Jesus
End at His throne. [Chorus]
