Follow Me

 

Come Follow Me

Come follow me and be my love.

 Let me guide you to places beyond time.

Hold my hand and take my lead through misty clouds

Of light.

Travel through to my vision and be comforted there,

Unafraid and safe.

 

For my path is sure and full of purpose.

It holds certainty and promises of never-ending devotion,

Windswept oasis of joy and peace,

Knowing and understanding of all that is, and is to be.

 

Take my hand and follow me.

Travel through this life of time eternal and full.

To oceans of infinite passage and lands of

Endless mystery.

Settle on me all your worries and fears.

Let me shoulder your burdens for a time, and teach 

How easily they can be tossed.

 

Let us ride the tide of journeys not yet taken,

And beat out wonders we have seen but not yet known.

Walk toward the fires and desolation of the soul,

Only to be found renewed and awakened.

For I see, and what’s more, I believe.

 

Oh yes, this is best!

Oh yes, this is worthy, 

You will see.

Close your eyes and be with me.

Travel with your hand in mine.

                                                           Travel with my heart in your hand.
