Lyrics

(Verse 1)
When the road gets rough and the night grows long,
When my heart’s too weak to sing a song,
There’s a Savior callin’, gentle and true,
Why follow Jesus? He pulls me through.
He left His throne for a rugged cross,
Paid my debt when I was lost.
With every step, His mercy flows,
Why follow Jesus? ‘Cause He knows.
(Chorus)
Why follow Jesus? He’s the way,
Light in the dark, my hope each day.
He gave His life, set my soul free,
Why follow Jesus? He’s all I need!
Through every storm, He’ll never leave,
Why follow Jesus? I believe!
(Verse 2)
When the world tempts with its fleeting gold,
And the lies of sin take a heavy hold,
Jesus stands with a voice so clear,
Why follow Jesus? He’s always near.
He calms the waves, He heals the pain,
Washed my sins in the crimson stain.
His promises stand, they never fade,
Why follow Jesus? He’s my aid.
(Chorus)
Why follow Jesus? He’s the way,
Light in the dark, my hope each day.
He gave His life, set my soul free,
Why follow Jesus? He’s all I need!
Through every storm, He’ll never leave,
Why follow Jesus? I believe!
(Bridge)
He’s the Shepherd for the wandering sheep,
The Rock of Ages, my soul to keep.
He conquered death, rose up alive,
Why follow Jesus? In Him I thrive!
(Chorus)
Why follow Jesus? He’s the way,
Light in the dark, my hope each day.
He gave His life, set my soul free,
Why follow Jesus? He’s all I need!
Through every storm, He’ll never leave,
Why follow Jesus? I believe!
(Outro)
So I’ll lift my hands, I’ll sing His praise,
Follow Jesus all my days.
Why follow Jesus? It’s plain to see,
He’s my Lord for eternity!
