Follow Jesus

  1. (Chorus)
    I need thee, oh, I need thee;
    Ev'ry hour I need thee!
    Oh, bless me now, my Savior;
    I come to thee!
  2. 2. I need thee ev'ry hour;
    Stay thou nearby.
    Temptations lose their pow'r
    When thou art nigh.
  3. 3. I need thee ev'ry hour,
    In joy or pain.
    Come quickly and abide,
    Or life is vain.
  4. I need thee ev'ry hour,Most holy One.
  5. Oh, make me thine indeed,
    Thou blessed Son!
  6. Text: Annie S. Hawks, 1835-1918
    Music: Robert Lowry, 1826-1899
I'm learning a lot about following as a trainer. Following the Spirit, following Christ, following the mission rules, etc. I am learning a lot about how to follow, and thus being a good leader. If I want my trainee to be a follower of Christ, then I must follow Him as much as I can. There was a story from conference a while ago about a child that was following in her mom's footsteps. At one point her mom was upset with her because she kept tripping over her. When she asked why she was doing this she said, "I was told in Primary to follow Jesus Christ. I don't see Jesus Christ, but I do see you." I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve in this calling. This is such a blessing! I know that following Jesus Christ means following others oftentimes. I know that the example my trainer set for me was wonderful, and thus I will do my best with God's help to serve Sister Christensen. I leave these things with you in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
