I am searching for a long time for a hymn from the book of ruth "whereever you will go" as I cannot get it anywhere. I don't know the lyrics for it so unsure ?? Someone suggested it for my wedding.

I don't know if this is the song, but there are many many urls on a google search resulting in this same song. Hope it's the one you are wanting.

Wherever You Will Go
~ The Calling

So lately, I've been wonderin'
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

CHORUS
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out

The way to make it back someday To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
Well I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

CHORUS

Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time

CHORUS

If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go

Not sure. Is it from the Book of Ruth in the bible?

I don't know if the one who wrote it took the thought from the book of Ruth. I only did a google search and what I posted is the result of my search. Hopefully someone else will know exactly what you are wanting. Wish I could be more help. Congratulations on your approaching marrriage. May God Bless You both with a long and happy life together.

Thank you so much for you help and for you kind words SingerForGod. I had tried some google searches as well but didn't get enough to see if it was from the "book of ruth" or not. I might ask the church singer when I'm chatting to him in a few weeks if I don't hear from anyone else on the site. (I'm sure he'd have to know)

The Monks of Weston Priory have recording of song entitle "Wherever you go, I will go" based on the Book of Ruth sometime in the 70's.

That's probably the song

The song is whether thy goest.

The chorus is all I know

Whether thy goest I will go,
whether thy lodgeth,I will lodge.
Thy people shall be my people my love.
whether thy goest I will go.
