  1. 1Who will follow Jesus,Standing for the right,Holding up His bannerIn the thickest fight?List’ning for His orders,Ready to obey,Who will follow Jesus,Serving Him today?Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?"Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?
  2. 2Who will follow Jesus,In life’s busy ways,Working for the Master,Giving Him the praise;Earnest in His vineyard,Honoring His laws,Faithful to His counsel,Watchful for His cause?Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?"Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?
  3. 3Who will follow Jesus?When the tempter charms,Fleeing then, for safetyTo the Savior's arms;Trusting in his mercy,Trusting in his power,Seeking fresh renewalsOf his grace each hour.Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?"Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?
  4. 4Who will follow JesusIn his work of love?Leading others to him,Lifting prayers above;Courage, faithful servant;In his word we see,On our side foreverWill this Saviour be.Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?"Who will follow Jesus?Who will make reply,"I am on the Lord's side,Master, here am I?
