"I Will Go"  Junior Choir

We are missionaries in Romania and Ukraine and use these songs in our
daily family devotion time as well as  in the church here.  We sing them in English and
put the translation of Romania up on the wall so the congregation knows what we are singing. 

We have used quite a few of the songs from the website over the last few years.  When we were
pastoring in South Dakota we used "I'm Grateful For The Cross" at each Communion service.
We continue to use this song in our devotions and in the Romanian Church where I preach. 

We are also going to have "I Was Glad" translated. (this is one of my very favorites songs!)
and we have used this in all of the churches we have pastored in.   

"I Will Go" is another of my favorites, as well as "By the Mercies of God"
 (Rev. Michael, from Romania)

I will go where You want me
               G            Em
            to go dear Lord
          C                  D                B7
