Brian Johnson - Where You Go I Go Lyrics
Lyrics
Where You go I go
What You say I say
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
Where You go I go
What You say I say
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
Cause Jesus only did what He saw You do
And He would only say what He heard You speak
And He would only move when He felt You lead
Following Your heart following Your spirit
So How could I expect to walk without You
When every move that Jesus made was in surrender
I will not begin to live without You
For You alone are worthy and You are always good
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
So How could I expect to walk without You
When every move that Jesus made was in surrender
I will not begin to live without You
For You alone are worthy and You are always good
You are always good
La, la, la, la
Oh, the beauty of Your name will be seen upon my face, Oh, God
La la la la
Oh, the glory of Your name will be seen upon our face, Oh, God
Though the world sees and soon forgets
We will not forget who You are and what You've done for us
And what You've done for us
And Though the world sees and soon forgets
We will not forget what You've done for us
La la la la
La la la
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
Where You go I go
What You say I say God
And what You pray I pray
And what You pray I pray
I will follow You yeah,
In this desert life, I will follow You
Whatever comes my way
Through every situation, I will follow You
To the unknown, to the unsaved
Give me a heart of no compromise

Meaning & Inspiration
Brian Johnson's "Where You Go I Go," featured on the 2006 album *We Believe*, is a powerful declaration of unwavering devotion and spiritual surrender. The song’s central theme is a profound commitment to follow God's will with absolute obedience, mirroring the example of Jesus Christ. The repeated refrain, "Where You go I go, What You say I say, And what You pray I pray," establishes a direct parallel between the believer's posture and the perfect submission of Jesus to the Father. This isn't mere imitation; it's an understanding that true spiritual life is rooted in dependence on divine guidance. The lyrics thoughtfully unpack this concept by referencing Jesus' earthly ministry, highlighting that He "only did what He saw You do," "would only say what He heard You speak," and "would only move when He felt You lead." This points directly to the concept of Jesus acting in perfect unity with God's purposes, as described in John 5:19, where Jesus states, "Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does." The song’s powerful argument, "So How could I expect to walk without You / When every move that Jesus made was in surrender," underscores the necessity of God's presence and direction for any meaningful spiritual journey. This resonates with the Apostle Paul's declaration in Philippians 4:13, that through Christ, we can do all things, implying that apart from Him, our capabilities are limited, and our path is uncertain. The verses concerning the "beauty of Your name" and the "glory of Your name" seen on faces are expressions of internal transformation, reflecting the promise in 2 Corinthians 3:18 that as we behold the glory of the Lord, we are "being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory." The poignant contrast between the world's forgetfulness and the believer's enduring remembrance of God's deeds ("Though the world sees and soon forgets / We will not forget who You are and what You've done for us") speaks to the enduring truth of God's faithfulness, a theme woven throughout Scripture from the Psalms to the Gospels. The song's closing plea, "Give me a heart of no compromise," encapsulates the desire for a pure and resolute commitment, echoing the call to be "holy, because I am holy" as stated in 1 Peter 1:16. Ultimately, "Where You Go I Go" is an anthem for those seeking to live a life fully aligned with God's spirit, a profound expression of faith that seeks not to lead but to be led, recognizing God's ultimate worthiness and goodness as the sole foundation for life and action.
