Go

I’ll Go where you want me to go – maybe

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, Real service is what I desire. I’ll sing You a solo anytime dear Lord, just don’t ask me to sing in the choir.

I’ll do what You want me to do, dear Lord, I like to see things come to pass. But don’t ask me to teach boys and girls, O Lord. I’d rather just stay in my class.

I’ll do what You want me to do, dear Lord, I yearn for Thy kingdom to thrive. 

I’ll give You my nickels and dimes, dear Lord. But please don’t ask me to tithe. 

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, I’ll say what You want me to say;

I’m busy just now with myself, dear Lord, I’ll help You some other day.
