I Will Go

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1887
Composer: William Kirkpatrick

I will go

I can­not stay

From the arms of love away

Oh

for strength of faith to say

Jesus died for me.

Can it be

oh can it be

There is hope for one like me?

I will go with this my plea

Jesus died for me.

Though I long have tried in vain

Tried to break the tempt­er’s chain

Yet to­night I’ll try again

Jesus

help Thou me.

I am lost

and yet I know

Earth can nev­er heal my woe;

I will rise at once and go

Jesus died for me.

Something whis­pers in my soul

Though my sins like mount­ains roll

Jesus’ blood will make me whole

Jesus died for me.

I obey the Sav­ior’s call

Now to Him I yield my all

At His feet

where oth­ers fall

There’s a place for me.
