Hymn of Praise Unison ScriptureFOLLOWER OF CHRIST

I want to be a follower of Christ, I want to be one of His disciples,

I want to walk in the newness of life, So let me be a follower of Christ.

What do I have to do, What do I have to say, How do I have to walk

Each and every day, Tell me what does it cost,

If I carry the cross,So let me be a follower of Christ.

NEHEMIAH 3:1-2 (NIV)1Eliashib the high priest and his fellow priests went to work and rebuilt the Sheep Gate. They dedicated it and set its doors in place, building as far as the Tower of the Hundred, which they dedicated, and as far as the Tower of Hananel. 2The men of Jericho built the adjoining section, and Zakkur son of Imri built next to them.
