I Hear Your Call

 

(Lyrics for Contemplative Living)

I hear your call

Hear your call

I hear your call oh Lord

inside my heart today.

 

I hear your call,

Yes hear your call,

I hear your call inside my

open heart today

————-

In this jumbling, stumbling,

tumbling world today,

Where it’s easy Lord

for me to lose my way

I can only hear your voice

when I make the choice

to spend the time with only you and pray.

—————–

I hear your call

Hear your call

I hear your call oh Lord

inside my heart today.

 

I hear your call,

Yes hear your call,

I hear your call inside my

open heart today

—————-

In this humbling, crumbling,

bumbling world today,

When every bit of life

Seems to pull my time away

I can only see your face

When I stop ambition’s chase

to spend the time with only you and pray

——————-

I hear your call, Lord

Yeah, hear your call

I hear your call my Lord

inside my heart today.

 

I hear your call, God

Yes hear your clear and fateful call to serve today,

I hear your call, yes oh my Lord, (slow down and punch each word)

I hear your call inside my

open heart today (end this stanza slow and with a rise in sound – like the end of a musical number, then hit it fast on the last reprise)

—————–

I hear your call, Lord

Yeah, hear your call

I hear your call my Lord

inside my heart today.

 

Hear your call, God

Yes hear your clear and fateful call to serve today,

I hear your call, yes oh my Lord, (slow down and punch each word)

I hear your call inside my

open heart today.
