Follow Me (To The Sea) | Catholic Folk Song | Ray Repp | Choir with Lyrics | Sunday 7pm Choir

Details

Description

"Follow Me (To The Sea)" is a folk-style, Catholic hymn about discipleship. It was written by Ray Repp, one of the first artists to employ folk music within Catholic liturgical music. While clearly not neglecting vertical theology in his compositions, Repp was a major proponent of horizontal theology (i.e. emphasis on social justice themes and 'love of neighbor') in Christian music.

Recorded live by the Sunday 7pm Choir at St. Francis De Sales Church in Ajax, Ontario Canada. Thanks for listening and hope to see you at Mass one Sunday evening soon!

Lyrics:

Follow me to the sea
Where I first called your name
We didn't know each other so
But I called and you came

Remember we promised
Our love wouldn't end
We'd gather all people
And love them as friends

My spirit will be with you
To light up your way
I love you more than words can say

Since the dawn of all time have I known
Your love would be with me and always be shown
In the love and the care you continue to give
To all of my people who live.

Follow me to the sea
Where I first called your name
We didn't know each other so
But I called and you came

Remember we promised
Our love wouldn't end
We'd gather all people
And love them as friends

My spirit will be with you
To light up your way
I love you more than words can say
