Planetshakers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where can I hide
Where Your love cannot reach me
Where can I go
Where Your arms, they're not here for me
Where can I run to
Where I cannot feel Your love

Cause Jesus Your love rescued me
So I'll follow after You

Wherever You take me
I'm following You
I'm gonna follow You
With everything I say
And everything I do
I'm gonna follow You

With every step I take
I know that You're with me
I know that You're with me
I'm gonna follow You
I'm taking up my cross
I'm following You
I'm gonna follow You

You're everything that I live for
I'll follow after You
Every day of my life Lord
I'll follow after You





I'll follow after You
I'm gonna follow You
