Lyrics

AND SO I FOLLOWED

Never walked the streets
I’m glad of that
Never washed his feet
But I wish I had
I was a woman who believed
And so I followed.

Stayed by his side
Learned all I could
He was my guide
And it was good
Then he was crucified
But still I followed

You know who I am
My name is Mary
I was part of his plan
Part of his story
I loved the man
I loved his truth
I loved his spirit
And so I followed.

Here’s what he said
Love is the way
He loves us yet
Though some would say
He was conquered by death
But I still followed

And you know who I am
My name is mary
I was part of his plan
Part of his story
I loved the man
I loved his truth
I loved his spirit
And so I followed

They asked me to tell what I’d learned
But wouldn’t believe what I had to say
Their envy simmered and burned
And once he was gone
They cast me away

But I still felt his grace.
My name is Mary
I was part of the plan
Part of the story
I loved the man
I loved his truth
I loved his spirit
That’s why I followed
I love the man
I love his truth
I love his spirit
And so I follow.
