1 I heard the voice of Jesus saying,
Come away from paths of sin,
I love thee, yes, for thee my life I gave,
My fold come enter in.

Refrain:
I’ll follow where he leads me,
Along the way;
I’ll follow where he leads me
From day unto day.
I’ll follow,
For where’er he leads me,
No harm can betide;
Yes, Jesus is with me, he will be my guide.

2 I heard the voice of Jesus saying,
I will lead in paths of peace,
Thro’ pastures verdant green, by waters still;
My care shall never cease. [Refrain]

3 I heard the voice of Jesus saying,
Trust thy life, thy soul, to me;
Be not dismayed, in paths of righteousness
Thy guide I’ll ever be. [Refrain]
