FOLLOW ME

Follow me, follow me,leave your home and family,
Leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore.
Leave the seeds that you have sown,
Leave the crops that you have grown,
Leave the people you have known and follow me.

The foxes have their holes and the swallows have their nests,
But the Son of Man has no place to lie down.
I do not offer comfort, I do not offer wealth,
But in Me will all happiness be found.

If you would follow me, you must leave old ways behind,
You must take your cross and follow on My path.
You may be far from loved ones, you may be far from home,
But My Father will welcome you at last.
