I’ll Follow
One night, I literally woke up with the first lines of this chorus in my head. The idea is that there is only one reliable foundation.

Lyrics
I fill my bank, my closet, my fridge, my resume
It all adds up to nothing
I will not worship nothing
I will not watch my foundation crumble and decay
For God is my rock, I need nothing more
My faith in the world has ended
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
My disbelief I suspended
You, I’ll follow you
I’m taking down all my fences
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
I’ve counted all consequences
You, I’ll follow you
I make my world look stable, but I put on a show
What is my reputation?
To hell with reputation
I might as well come clean and let everybody know
That I can’t walk straight, Jesus walks for me
My faith in the world has ended
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
My disbelief I suspended
You, I’ll follow you
I’m taking down all my fences
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
I’ve counted all consequences
You, I’ll follow you
I walk through deadly valleys, but I am not afraid
You lay the path before me
You’ve walked this path before me
Why should I fear when you’re here, a humble prayer away?
With faith as my shield, evil can’t stop me
My faith in the world has ended
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
My disbelief I suspended
You, I’ll follow you
I’m taking down all my fences
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll Follow
I’ve counted all consequences
You, I’ll follow you
And as I go, I still know the greatest mystery
The God in heaven loves me
When I was made he loved me
When I disobey he loves me
I’m free because he loves me
My faith in the world has ended
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
My disbelief I suspended
You, I’ll follow you
I’m taking down all my fences
You, I’ll follow you, I’ll follow
I’ve counted all consequences
You, I’ll follow you
