You don't know how He met me -- You don't know why
You can't turn around my faith in Christ
Long ago I went-a fishin' one day at sea
He said to me, "James, try some fishin' for Me"
"And if You want to leave life in Galilee
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
I'm not worried 'bout the king out there
Cause the Lord has got my soul and my body don't care
You feel I'm guilty and I'm well aware
A funeral's booked for James but baby I'm not scared
He told me, "Follow Me, " and I said, "Jesus, all right
"I'll be the one to trust You with his life
"And if You're gonna be fightin' Pharisees
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
Forgive me, Mama, I can't kiss you goodbye
You're better off if you don't drop by
I'm locked in prison; I'll soon go away
Maybe they'll write of this in Acts 12 someday
"Follow Me, " and I said, "Jesus, all right
"I'll be the one to trust You with his life
"And if You want to lead to Gethsemane
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
You don't know how He met me -- You don't know Christ
You've captured me now and say I'll die
All I know is when I've left you, I'm breaking free
So cling to your vain lives, I'm itchin' to leave
He told me, "Follow Me, " and I said, "Jesus, all right
"I'll be the one to trust You with his life
"And if You want to lead up to Calvary
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
He told me, "Follow Me, " and I said, "Jesus, all right
"I'll be the one to trust You with his life
"And if You want to lead up to Calvary
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
He told me, "Follow Me, " and I said, "Jesus, all right
"I'll be the one to trust You with his life
"And if You want to lead up to Heavenly
"You know I'll go gladly just like Thee"
