I’m one of the worship vocalists at Journey Church in Bradenton, FL. I know that God uses music to prepare the hearts of His people to hear His Words. He loves when His people lavish Him with praise and thanksgiving for what He’s done and worship Him for who He is. We all have different musical tastes but to me, when it comes to worship music the lyrics are what matter most.
Today we sang a very powerful song, I have heard it occasionally over the last year or so but this was our first time leading the congregation in the singing of this song. The words to this song are so powerful and true, transparent and honest that-to truly sing it from your heart you must surrender yourself totally to the will of God.
The song is “Where You Go I’ll Go” by Brian and Jenn Johnson. Here are the lyrics.
Chorus:
Where you go I’ll go
What you say I’ll say, God
What you pray I’ll pray
What you pray I’ll pray
Verse:
Jesus only did what he saw You do
He would only say what he heard You speak
He would only move when he felt You lead
Following your heart following Your spirit
Pre chorus:
How could I expect to walk without You
When every move that Jesus made was in surrender
I will not begin to live without You
For You alone are worthy and You are always good
Bridge:
Though the world sees and soon forgets
We will not forget who You are and what You’ve done for us
What You’ve done for us
Since many of you may not know this powerful song, I’m including a video of Kim Walker and Jesus Culture leading this song in a worship service. I hope this blesses and challenges you as it has me. Please leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts.

These are powerful words! If we surrendered as Jesus did, what an impact we could make on the world.
