Covenant Hymn

Rory Cooney/Gary Daigle

1. Wherever you go, I will follow,

Wherever you live is my home.

Though days be of blessing or sorrow,

Though house be of canvas or stone,

Though Eden be lost to the past,

Though mountains before us be vast,

Wherever you go, I am with you,

I never will leave you alone.

2. Whatever you dream, I am with you,

When stars call your name in the night.

Though shadows and mist cloud the future,

Together we bear there a light.

Like Abram and Sarah we stand,

With only a promise in hand.

But lead where you dream: I will follow.

To dream with you is my delight.

3. And though you should fall, you will find me,

When no other friend can you claim.

When foes beat you down or betray you

And others desert you in shame.

And home and dreams aren’t enough

And you run away from my love,

I’ll raise you from where you have fallen.

Faithful to you is my name.

4. Wherever you go, I will follow,

Behold! The horizon shines clear.

The possible gleams like a city:

Together we’ve nothing to fear.

So speak with words bold and true

The message my heart speaks to you.

You won’t be alone, I have promised.

Wherever you go, I am here.

Thank you, alleluia

Thank you, alleluia (3x) Amen.(Add all languages present…)

Longing for hope, many despair.

Longing for water, many still thirst.

Make us your bread, broken for others,

Shared until all are fed.

Make us your building, sheltering others,

Walls made of living stone.

Many the hearts that yearn to belong.

Let us be servants to one another,

Making your kingdom come.
