I’ll Go Where You Want Me to Go (Blues Version)

Christian blues, gospel blues, southern soul

Verse 1 – Soft & Prayerful

It may not be on the mountain height,
Nor over the stormy sea;
It may not be on the battle line
My Lord will be calling me.
But if by His still, small voice I hear
A path I’ve never known,
I’ll answer, Lord, my hand in Yours,
“I’ll go where You lead me on.”

Chorus – Gentle Call

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord,
Over mountain, plain, or sea;
I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord,
I’ll be what You want me to be.

(Soft organ chords, light guitar fill.)

Verse 2 – Growing Groove & Conviction

Perhaps today there are words of love
That Jesus would have me speak;
Or maybe someone lost in sin
Whose soul I was born to seek.
O Savior, if You will be my guide,
Though the road be rough for me,
My voice will ring that message sweet:
“I’ll say what You’d have me say.”

Chorus – Fuller Sound

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord,
Over mountain, plain, or sea;
I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord,
I’ll be what You want me to be.

(Drums shift to shuffle groove, tambourine enters, choir hums “go where You lead me.”)

Verse 3 – The Rise of Joy

There’s surely somewhere a humble place,
In fields of the harvest wide,
Where I can labor through life’s short day
For Jesus, the Crucified.
So I’ll trust my all to Your tender care,
You love and watch for me;
I’ll do Your will with a heart made free,
I’ll be what You’d have me be!

Bridge – Choir and Organ Build

Where You lead me, I will follow!
Where You send me, I will go!
Through the fire or through the water—
Lord, my heart says “yes,” my soul says “go!”

(Handclaps, guitar riffs, rising tempo toward 90 BPM.)

Final Chorus – Full Gospel Power

I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord,
Over mountain, plain, or sea;
I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord,
I’ll be what You want me to be!

(Choir echoes: “Go where You send me!” “Say what You tell me!”)

Tag / Outro – Joyful Conviction
I’ll go! I’ll go! Yes Lord, I’ll go!
You lead, I’ll follow — body and soul.
I’ll go where You want me to go!

(Choir and organ hold final “Go where You want me to go!” as the band hits a triumphant chord.)
