"Follow Jesus" by S.D.G. (Soli.Deo.Gloria) is a song that started in a miraculous way. S.D.G. shared that 95% of the song lyrics, melody, and harmony came to mind completely unexpectedly in 1–2 days. He compares it to lightning, lightly, seemingly without his effort, as if somebody else from High sent it all to him and said, "do it"!
The song challenges us to reflect on our feelings of pride and self-reliance: "When I do say - I'm always right… Am I not blind?" It invites us to exchange our arrogance for humility and reminds us that Christ already lives among us and guides us with His grace. "Jesus - He lives in our midst, // He's the best teacher that the earth has ever known!"
The invitation continues in the chorus: "Follow Jesus, follow Jesus, let Him guide you… let Him shepherd you… let Him teach you." A call to surrender yourself entirely and unconditionally to His leadership. What makes this song even more special is its global touch! People from diverse backgrounds and different countries came together and participated in the recordings. This is a song that literally united people with its message, and hopefully this message may also enter your heart!
If you're seeking direction or longing for unity, let this song lead you closer to Him.
