Follow Me

v. 1
These words that I say
Are hard to obey
Let those with ears to hear
Heed and draw near

(chorus)
Those things you prize consider loss
Put down your pride and pick up your cross
Prepare to die and count the cost
And come and follow me

v. 2
Even birds have their nest
And the fox has his rest
There’s no place I lay my head
Let the dead tend the dead

(bridge)
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me
For my burden is light and my yoke is easy

v. 3
Then one day we will feast
Where the first shall be least
And this lowly lovely bride
Shall sit by my side

    "I find Marc Heinrich’s music moving and his lyrics faithful to Scripture, sobered with the real world of suffering, and creative in expression. I am happy to say: Listen and learn and be drawn further up and further in to God’s presence."

    John Piper
    Pastor for Preaching & Vision
    Bethlehem Baptist Church
    Minneapolis, MN


    "I love Further Up and Further In Music because I love Marc Heinrich. Marc is a man with a powerful gift for songwriting who loves Jesus and the local church. His lyrics are always thoughtful and theologically robust, driving us to the supremacy of Christ and the glory of the gospel."

    R W Glenn
    Pastor of Preaching & Vision
    Redeemer Bible Church
    Minnetonka, MN


    "Is that dirge they're playing one of yours Heinrich? It's not too bad." (on hearing the worship team run Only Jesus)

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."

    Bob Kauflin
    Director of Worship Development
    Sovereign Grace Ministries Gaitherburg, MD
