In the silence of the lonely night
In the fulsome glow of day’s clear light
Through life’s strange windings, dark or bright
We will follow YOU
Strengthened by You we forward go
Midst smile of scoff or friend or foe
In pleasure of pain or joy or woe
We will follow YOU
So Master point to us the way
Oh suffer not our steps to stray
Reveal the path that leads today
We will follow YOU
With enemies on every side
We lean on You, the crucified
Forsaking all on earth beside
We will follow YOU
You have passed on before our face
Your footsteps on the Way we trace
Oh keep us, aid us by Your grace
We will follow YOU
Who have we in heaven above?
And who on earth save You to love?
Still in Your light we onward move
We will follow YOU
So Master point to us the way
Oh suffer not our steps to stray
Reveal the path that leads today
We will follow YOU
