Song of Ruth (Wherever you go)

During the time of the Judges when there was a famine, an Israelite family from Bethlehem – Elimelech, his wife Naomi, and their sons Mahlon and Chilion – emigrated to the nearby country of Moab. Elimelech died, and the sons married two Moabite women: Mahlon married Ruth and Chilion married Orpah.

After about ten years, the two sons of Naomi also died in Moab. Naomi decided to return to Bethlehem. She told her daughters-in-law to return to their own mothers, and remarry. Orpah reluctantly left, however Ruth decided to stay with Naomi.

What Ruth said to Naomi (Ruth 1:16-17) comprise the lyrics of this song. The melody was composed by Brother Gregory Norbet, from the Benedictine Weston Priory in Vermont.
