Come, Follow Me

You gotta give up your possessions

If you want to follow me

You gotta hate your life

Hate your wife

And all your family

You gotta put your hand to the plow

And never once look back

You gotta watch and pray

On this narrow way

And surrender all you have

Come and follow me

Won't you come and follow me

Are you counting the cost

Of taking up your cross

And following wherever I lead

So come and follow me

Are you seeking first the kingdom

Or are you building your own

Are you giving to the least of these

Or just your happy little home

Have you considered my commission

Or are you too busy with your dreams

Would you come and find a better one

Would you come and follow me

Come and follow me

Won't you come and follow me

You could gain the world

But you'll lose your soul

For all of eternity

So come and follow me

Love your enemies

Turn the other cheek

Die so you can live

Forgive as you've been forgiven

Oh won't you come

Come and follow me

Come and follow me

Are you counting the cost

Of taking up your cross

And following wherever I lead

You could gain the world

But you'll lose your soul

For all of eternity

Well if you keep your life

You're gonna stay blind

But lose it and you're gonna see

If you come and follow me
