Follow Me Lyrics Marvin Sapp

Lord I want to follow you (oh with a heart that's)
Pure and holy (Lord I want to follow you, your love is)
Never failing (let me be)
Let me be an example (of who you are)
Of who you are (bearing fruit for your kingdom is the treasure)
Treasure of my heart

I wanna be caught up in your dwelling place (I want to follow you)

I may not know everything
And sometimes I don't get it all right
Yet my heart may fail thee
I know my spirit is contrite
In the midst of this human frailty
Lord please be my guide

Lord I want to follow you (oh with a heart that's)
Pure and holy (Lord I want to follow you)
Never failing (Your love's never failing, let me be)
Let me be an example (of who you are, who you are)
Of who you are (bearing fruit for your kingdom is the treasure)
Treasure of my heart

I wanna be caught up in your dwelling place (want to follow you)

I wanna follow you wherever you go
Step by step each moment
You're the shepherd I know
Lord please guide me in the right way (right way)
That will lead to your holy place
I love you (I love you), I love you (I love you)
For in you the joy never ends

Lord I want to follow you (oh with a love that's pure)
Pure and holy (Hallelujah! Lord I want to follow you)
Never failing (your love is never failing, let me be)
Let me be an example (let me be an example of who you are)
Of who you are (who you are, who you are)
(Bearing fruit for your kingdom is the treasure)
Treasure of my heart

I wanna be caught up in your dwelling place (want to follow you)

Open my eyes that I might see (that I might see)
What you really are to me
Don't wanna take advantage of your grace
(I don't wanna take advantage of your grace)
Lead me to your most holy place
(Sing it again y'all, open my eyes yeah)
Open my eyes that I might see (everytime I
Look the other way I don't know which way to go)
What you really are to me (I don't wanna take)
Don't wanna take advantage of your grace (lead me to)
Lead me to your most holy place (open my eyes, my eyes)
Open my eyes that I might see (directly Lord)
What you really are to me (I don't wanna take)
Don't wanna take advantage of your grace (lead me to)
Lead me to your most holy place (open my eyes yeah)
Open my eyes that I might see (what you really are)
What you really are to me (I don't wanna take advantage of your grace)
Don't wanna take advantage of your grace (lead me to your holy place)
Lead me to your most holy place (yeah, yeah)

Every step I take, every breath I breathe
I want to follow you
Every step I take, every breath I breathe (I wanna follow you)
Want to follow you (every step, oh my God)
Every step I take,
Every breath I breathe (I don't wanna move without you Jesus)
I want to follow you (no no, no no)
Every step I take,
Every breath I breathe (every step I take,
Every move I make, has to be a step towards you)
Want to follow you
Every step I take, every breath I breathe
I want to follow you (I wanna)
Every step I take, every breath I breathe (wanna follow you)
Want to follow you

Somebody lift up their hands and give God glory
Lord I give you praise in the spirit
God because every step I make every move I take
I wanna follow you Lord
I've gone my own direction
I've done my own thing
Every step I made in error
Lord [?]
Oh yeah...
