I'll Go Where You Want Me to Go
I'll go where you want
me to go,
dear Lord,
Real service is what I
desire,
I'll say what you want me
to
say, dear Lord,
But don't ask me to sing
in the
choir.
I'll say what you want
me to say,
dear Lord,
I like to see things come
to
pass,
But don't ask me to teach
anywhere,
dear Lord,
I'd much rather stay in
my class.
I'll give what you
want me to
give, dear Lord,
I yearn for the kingdom
to thrive,
I'll give you some
pennies or
nickels, dear Lord,
But please don't ask me
to tithe.
I'll read what you
want me to
read, dear Lord,
If geneaology isn't
implied,
I never did like to
search books,
dear Lord,
For names of people
who've died.
I'll go where you want
me to go,
dear Lord,
Yes--I'll go most anywhere
But I've got too many
tasks to
do, dear Lord,
To go down to Welfare
Square.
I'll give what you
want me to
give dear Lord,
And I'm sure I'll never
begrudge
it,
But I haven't the money
to spare,
dear Lord,
To pay in the Welfare or
Budget.
Yes, I'll go where you
want me
to go, dear Lord,
I'll serve you with all
my might,
But don't ask me to go to
the
temple, dear Lord,
Because I'm far too busy
each
night.
