Seguirei o Mestre
Nani Azevedo
I Will Follow the Master
And if it were you, by the Jordan's edge
Witnessing another baptism by John
And that man then approached
And if you saw the dove descending and God's voice echoing
What would you say? What would you think?
And if you heard on any given day a stranger calling you
Leave the nets, and come after me
The work now is greater, we have souls to catch
What would you do? What would you think?
Would you say: I will follow the Master
In his footsteps I will tread
I leave everything to walk with Him
Could you give your life to the Master?
Do you prefer fishing for fish, gaining earthly glories
Or can you say from the heart: I will follow the Master
And if on a beautiful sunny day looking out the window
A crowd shouting: Hosannas to the Lord
And upon seeking the king, you found him riding on a donkey
What would you say? What would you think?
And if you were, a knower of all the law
Seeking salvation
Having the Master's approval
And if you heard: Then follow me
But sell all that you have
What would you do? What would you think?
Would you say: I will follow the Master
In his footsteps I will tread
I leave everything to walk with Him
Could you give your life to the Master?
Do you prefer accumulating riches, being surrounded by the world's glory
Or can you say from the heart: I will follow the Master
Can you say: I will follow the Master
In his footsteps I will tread
I leave everything to walk with Him
Can you then give your life to the Master?
Do you prefer the pleasures that the world offers
Walking the path of death
Or can you say from the heart: I will follow the Master
I will follow my good Master
I will follow my good Master
I will follow my good Master
Wherever he goes, I will go
I will follow the Master
