Life has a way of turning into noise.
The older we get…
The easier it is to forget who we once hoped to be.
Worldly responsibilities grow.
Debts accumulate.
Voices multiply.
The world becomes louder.
Until one day…
We can hardly hear our own thoughts.
Perhaps that is why the Lord so often calls people away from the crowds.
Whether mountains or forests.
Anywhere you can find the quiet.
For you to hear His voice again.

Lyrics:
I’m following Jesus, will you follow too?
C, D, E, E/G
When sky turns to grey
And winds run astray
It’s harder to walk
It’s harder to talk
And you cover up
From all the white noise
It’s getting so loud
You can’t hear your voice
And now that you’re older
You try not to fight
The creeping of thoughts
That you wasted your life
But let me remind you
His plan is for you
If you follow Spirit
You’ll know this is true
C, D, C, D
So what are you gonna do?
I’m following Jesus, will you follow too?
C, D, E, E/G
The smiles hard to find
Polluting our mind
With fear from the lies
Sundown to sunrise
And all of this talk
That hinders your work
That you do for this world
Instead of our Lord
Instead look above you
And there you will see
The sky He created
For you and for me
Remember this moment
It’s one of a kind
Just like He created
His beauty to find
So what are you gonna do?
I’m following Jesus, will you follow too?
I’m following Jesus, will you follow too?
There comes a moment in our lives when no one can make the decision for us.
Not our parents.
Not our children.
Not our friends.
Not society.
Not religion.
Us…
Alone with the Lord.
And with the Lord, you are not alone.
So will you continue with the crowd?
Or with the Lord?
