Who? by Louis Gander

We read – each day – Your Holy Word.
We know that it is true.
We promise to obey you Lord –
but ‘WHAT’ are we to do?

We read and understand Your Word,
You know our lives are pure.
We promise to obey you Lord –
but ‘WHEN’? – we’re not so sure.

We read and comprehend Your Word,
You know we inward grow.
We promise to obey you Lord –
but ‘WHERE’ are we to go?

We are as ready as Your Word,
prepared to follow through.
We promised to obey you Lord –
but ‘WHO’ should follow You?

We always keep on promising
and say we’ll do our best –
but when it gets right down to it
our ‘will’ has taken rest.

Oh, Jesus took up His own cross –
and died for me and you –
and Jesus did not ask and ask –
the ‘what’, ‘when’, ‘where’, or ‘who’….

‘WHAT’ we do – is follow Him.
The ‘WHEN’ is now, you see.
‘WHERE’ is to lost, dying souls,
and ‘WHO’ is always “me”.
