Follow Thou Me

Author: Mrs. M. B. C. Slade Hymnal: The Christian Sunday School Hymnal #39 (1883) First Line: If I, like Galilee fishers Refrain First Line: Then follow the summons of Jesus Lyrics: 1 If I, like Galilee fishers, Were mending my nets by the main, And Jesus, coming, should call me, He never should call in vain. Refrain: We'll follow the summons of Jesus, Wherever, however it falls; When high up the pathway he sees us, And "Follow thou me!" he calls. 2 If I were dwelling in pleasure, Or sitting in places of gain, And Jesus, passing, should call me, He never should call in vain. [Refrain] 3 If I were sinking in sadness, Or dreading the cross and the pain, And Jesus tenderly called me, He never should call in vain. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 4:19 Tune Title: [If I, like Galilee fishers]
