I Will Go

Crystal Lewis


and he said come and follow me. i'm calling out, i want you to be 
a fisherman to fish for those who're drowning in a scowling sea 

a sea of loneliness and pain; confusion, hurt, worry, shame 
i'm holding out my hand and yet they don't hear me call their names 

i want you to be the one to tell them that the kingdom's come 
and give them all the truth and joy that you've been given by the son 

will you go wherever i lead 
be light in the dark 
be salt in the street 
will you go no matter the cost 
will you live for the lost 
so they'll know of the cross 
will you go... 

i said oh, no, lord not me. i'm not good enough to go you see 
i mean, what if they laugh or worst. start throwing things and i get hurt 

besides that, what would i say. i think there's been a big mistake 
lord, please ask this of someone else. i can't go...i'm too afraid 

i want you to be the one to tell them that the kingdom's come 
and give them all the truth and joy that you've been given by the son 

will you go wherever i lead 
be light in the dark 
be salt in the street 
will you go no matter the cost 
will you live for the lost 
so they'll know of the cross 
will you go... 

and he said yes, some will cover their ears and they will not want to hear 
you must stand and say it still, be brave my child and do not fear 

for it is my words you'll speak and a promise i will keep 
you safe and sound within my will...i'm your strength when you're weak 

i will go wherever you lead 
be the light in the dark 
and be salt in the street 
i will go no matter the cost 
i will live for the lost 
so they'll know of the cross 
i will go...
