Footsteps of Jesus

Luke 5:11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

If you would like to see all of your tomorrows altered and your life filled with the best that God can give, then the secret lies in total surrender of everything in your life to His will.


Footsteps of Jesus

________________________________


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.


Though they lead o’er the cold, dark mountains,    —    Seeking His sheep;    —    Or along by Siloam’s fountains,    —    Helping the weak. - - -


If they lead through the temple holy preaching the Word;   —   

Or in homes of the poor and lowly,    —    Serving the Lord.



Then, at last, when on high He sees us, our journey done, — We will rest where the steps of Jesus    —    End at His throne.


Mary B. Slade   1871
