about

STORY:
While in prison, Paul has converted
his jailers and fellow prisoners to his faith in
Jesus Christ. They ask to travel with him to Rome
where he will await his personal audience with
Caesar – a request to which Paul is
entitled as a citizen of Rome.

“Teacher, I will follow you
wherever you go…he did not let anyone follow him …”
– from Matthew 8:19 & Mark 5:37 (NIV)

lyrics

LYRICS:
(Jailers & Prisoners):
Now I see
Will you please take me
I’ll follow wherever
You go

Your Message
Teacher has changed my life
Don’t leave me all
Alone – no

All this time
You’ve been our guest
Here in prison under house arrest
Now Nero’s grantin’
Your request

Teacher will you please take me
Teacher will you please take me

You’re set to sail
On the Great Blue Sea
Nero’s callin’ – will you please take me
Changed my heart – you’ve
Set me free

Teacher, will you please take me
Teacher, will you please take me

(The Apostle Paul):

Well – where I go I go alone
Dawn tomorrow I sail for Rome
But I promise you won’t be alone
Here in prison

Since he’s risen

Just one
Last Message
To deliver, brothers
You remain as a light
To others

Tomorrow
As I set to sea
Brothers, will you pray
For me

(Jailers & Prisoners):

Teacher
Will you please take me

(Paul):

Brothers
Will you pray for me

You got your keys – I got my chains
You know the place – you got my name
