I’ll Go Where You Want Me to Go

Lyrics

1. 1. It may not be on the mountain height

   Or over the stormy sea,

   It may not be at the battle’s front

   My Lord will have need of me.

   But if, by a still, small voice he calls

   To paths that I do not know,

   I’ll answer, dear Lord, with my hand in thine:

   I’ll go where you want me to go.

2. [Chorus]

   I’ll go where you want me to go, dear Lord,

   Over mountain or plain or sea;

   I’ll say what you want me to say, dear Lord;

   I’ll be what you want me to be.

3. 2. Perhaps today there are loving words

   Which Jesus would have me speak;

   There may be now in the paths of sin

   Some wand’rer whom I should seek.

   O Savior, if thou wilt be my guide,

   Tho dark and rugged the way,

   My voice shall echo the message sweet:

   I’ll say what you want me to say.

4. 3. There’s surely somewhere a lowly place

   In earth’s harvest fields so wide

   Where I may labor through life’s short day

   For Jesus, the Crucified.

   So trusting my all to thy tender care,

   And knowing thou lovest me,

   I’ll do thy will with a heart sincere:

   I’ll be what you want me to be.
