A Soft, Still Voice

by

Lloyd (Buck) Tohill

 

Am                                                F

I thought I heard a voice whisper in my ear.

       Am                                        F

When I turned around, there was no one there;

            E                              Am

No one was around, no one could be found

Am                                              G

Again I heard that voice calling after me,

                        F                              E

What are you waiting for, we have people to feed

Am                                             G

The voice in my heart spoke to me again

               F                                           E

We have hearts to mend, we have the sick to tend,

            Am       E                  Am

Follow me. . . .Come follow me.

 

Am                                           F

Again I heard a voice whisper in my soul.

Am                                         F

Again I turned around, I was still alone

            E                              Am

No one was around, no one could be found

Am                                          G

Then I heard that voice softly in my ear,

       F                                E

Just trust in me and I will take you where

Am                                                                  G

You’ll bind the wounds and heal the scars of those

        F                                    E                         Am

Hurt by the ones who whose hearts to me are closed.

            Am       E                  Am

Follow me. . . .Come follow me.

 

 

 

 

Am                                      F

A voice is calling you as it did to me,

Am                                 F

Softly crying out, come follow me.

                   E                                   Am

We have so much to do, there’s so much to do.

Am                                                      G

When you hear that call will you just walk away,

                   F                        E

Or will you turn around and simply say,

Am                                                        G

Here I am, I’m yours, what would you have me do?

                  F                        E                                   Am

There’s so much to do, just lead me on, I’ll follow you.

E              Am

I’ll follow you.

E              Am

I’ll follow you.
