SS&S 614: WHEN I CAME TO JESUS, THEN MY HEART WAS SAD

1. When I came to Jesus, then my heart was sad;

But when He received me, then He made me glad.

Freely He forgave me, met my spirit's need;

Then He bade me follow whither He would lead.

 

I will follow Jesus, follow all the day;

Walking in His footsteps closely all the way.

 

2. Oft in hours of trial I have gone astray,

Into worldly bypaths from the narrow way;

But my Saviour sought me, brought

me to His side;

Then again I followed Christ, the Crucified.

 

3. But I would not wander, gracious

Lord, from Thee;

I would follow wholly, with true loyalty:

Every sin forsaking from my inmost soul;

Every thought surrendered to Thy grand control.

 

4. Teach me by Thy Spirit, and Thy

Holy Word,

How I best may suffer, and obey Thee, Lord;

And however painful to obey may be,

Love can make it gladsome, aye to follow Thee.
