Does Anyone Know Who Sings This Song: "Would You Follow Him?

Guitar 2Image via WikipediaThis is a song that was sung by someone at my retreat this past weekend ("The Walk to Emmaus) and it sounded a whole lot like it could be Johnny Cash.  However, I've searched Google and iTunes and have come up blank. 

I was hoping to find either an audio or a video recording as the lyrics fit well with our current Lenten theme.  The guitar music the singer had on him did not list a writer or performer.

Here are the lyrics:


If he challenged your wrong to be right, would you follow him, follow him?
If he told you, you must lose your life, would you follow him, follow him?
If he told you to love those you hate, would you follow him, follow him?
If he told you how narrow the gate, would you follow him, follow him...just like that?

Just like that, just like that, just like that, just like that, no questions asked?

If it told you to sell what you have, would you follow him, follow him?
If he told you the first would be last would you follow him, follow him...just like that?

Just like that, just like that, just like that, just like that, no questions asked?

It don't matter if you've lost your sight
It don't matter if you're black, brown, or white
It don't matter where you are, or you've been
He calls you, "Come follow" him.

If he told you to turn the other cheek, would you follow him, follow him?
If he told you it's not for the weak, would you follow him, follow him...just like that?

Just like that, just like that, just like that, just like that, no questions asked?

It don't matter if you've lost your sight
It don't matter if you're black, brown, or white
It don't matter where you are, or you've been
He calls you, "Come follow" him.

If he came in the dark of night, would you follow him, follow him?
If he promised you eternal life, would you follow him, follow him...

Just like that? (x3)
