Lyrics: Lead The Way by Leeland
I thought I knew what was best for my own life
Then I heard You calling me out from the shore line
You draw me in, I wanna give You everything
For I was created to walk with You side by side
You are the way and the truth and the life
There is no fear in Your presence
You lead the way, the way, Jesus You lead the way
You hold the keys to my future my destiny
Your thoughts and your plans are the hope that’s in front of me
What a joy it is to give you everything
In life and in death I am
Yours for eternity
You are the way and the truth and the life
There is no fear in Your presence
You lead the way, the way, Jesus You lead the way
I will follow
I will follow
I will follow You
I will follow
I will follow
I will follow You
I don’t care if I look like a fool
I don’t care if I don’t look cool, no
I don’t care if I look like a fool
If I don’t look cool
I’ll be a fool for You, Jesus
I don’t care if I look like a fool
I don’t care if I don’t look cool, no
I don’t care if I look like a fool
If I don’t look cool
I’ll be a fool for You
You are the way and the truth and the life
There is no fear in Your presence
You lead the way, the way, Jesus You lead the way
You are the way and the truth and the life
There is no fear in Your presence
You lead the way, the way, Jesus You lead the way
I will follow
I will follow
I will follow You
