Verse 1
Sweet are the branches
Growing the fruit that comes from the vine
But these are just branches
Blown by the wind and holding on to life
And I want to be like them
Holding to the One whose life is mine
And I know as I follow Him
His life will surely show in me
Chorus
He said you will show yourselves to be
The ones who follow Me (follow Me)
By the evidence you leave along the way (along the way)
They will know that you are mine
Like the branches on the vine
If you show yourselves to be following Me
Verse 2
Faith joins our heats to Him
It’s not a result of anything we do
But if we are part of Him
There will be reasons to believe it’s true
The fruit cannot help but grow
If the branch is joined into the tree
And love cannot help but show
In the one who goes where Jesus leads
Chorus
He said you will show yourselves to be
The ones who follow Me (follow Me)
By the evidence you leave along the way (along the way)
They will know that you are mine
Like the branches on the vine
If you show yourselves to be
Bridge
Planted in the fertile soil of quiet times
Watered by the rains of trouble
Growing towards the sun that shines
Instrumental Break
Outro
(They will know, they will know)
They will know that you are Mine
Like the branches on the vine
If you show yourselves to be following Me
(Show yourselves to be)
So, show yourselves to be following Me
