Verse 1
Every morning when I wake, (stretch up high, then rub your eyes)
Every step and every day, (march on the spot)
Jesus, You will lead me on, (point upwards, then forwards)
I’ll follow all the way. (walk forwards four steps)

When I’m happy, when I’m sad, (big smile, then pretend to wipe a tear)
When I’m strong or feeling small, (show muscles, then crouch down)
Jesus, You are always near, (hug yourself)
You’re the best friend of us all. (put an arm around the person next to you, or stretch arms wide)

Chorus
Follow Jesus! (point upwards)
Step by step! (march in place)

Follow Jesus! (point upwards)
Step by step! (march in place)

Love like Jesus! (make a heart with your hands)
Help each other! (pretend to lift someone up)

Shine for Jesus! (hands burst open like sunshine)
Every day! (arms stretch out wide)

Chant
Leader: Who do we follow?
Children: JESUS! (point upwards)

Leader: Where will we go?
Children: Anywhere He leads! (point forwards)

Leader: Who will we tell?
Children: EVERYONE! (sweep both arms around the room)

Leader: What’s our mission?
Children: FOLLOW JESUS! (march forwards together)

Verse 2
I can show Your love at home, (make a roof shape over your head)
I can share it at my school, (pretend to carry a school bag)
Help the lonely, tell the truth, (offer your hand, then point to your mouth)
Living by Your rule. (hold hands together like an open Bible)

All around the world we’ll pray, (draw a big circle like the globe)
Every nation, every land, (point all around the room)
Jesus, build Your family, (bring hands together)
Walking hand in hand. (hold hands or link little fingers with neighbours)

Final Chorus
Follow Jesus! (point upwards)
Step by step! (march in place)
Hey! (big jump and celebrate!)
