Author: W. A. O. Hymnal: The Golden Sheaf #25 (1902) First Line: Sweet are the promises, Kind is the word Lyrics: 1 Sweet are the promises, Kind is the word,
Dearer far than any message man ever heard;
Pure was the mind of Christ, Sinless I see;
He the great example is, and pattern for me.
Chorus:
Where he leads I'll follow,
Follow all the way.
Where he leads I'll follow,
Follow Jesus ev'ry day.
2 Sweet is the tender love Jesus hath shown,
Sweeter far than any love that mortals have known;
Kind to the erring one, Faithful is he;
He the great example is, and pattern for me. [Chorus]
3 List to his loving words, "Come unto me,"
Weary, heavy laden, there is sweet rest for thee;
Trust in his promises, Faithful and sure;
Lean upon the Saviour, and thou wilt be secure. [Chorus] Tune Title: [Sweet are the promises, Kind is the word]
Where He Leads I'll Follow
