When God Calls

What wonder and fear
Moses must have felt that day
When God's voice spoke from a burning bush
And sealed His Holy fate

For the prideful Saul of tarsus
The day turned into night
When a blinding flash from God
Left him groping without sight

God called them
He called them to obey Him
And to follow His command
To attend divine appointment
With the blessed great I am

When God calls
We stand before the maker of the universe
When God calls
He lifts our spirit far from all the realms of earth
We tremble at His bidding
With our feet on Holy ground
A consecrated summons
To the throne room of His power
We bow and worship Him alone
When God calls

From that moment in the garden
When He first created man
He has longed that we should know Him
And prosper at His hand

So He draws us to His presence
And brings us to His light
Destined steps in the journey
Of a heart that's sanctified

God calls us
Oh, how He calls us in our sorrow
And finds us in our pain
To receive His gift of mercy
Salvation in His name

When God calls
We stand before the maker of the universe
When God calls
He lifts our spirit far from all the realms of earth
We tremble at His bidding
With our feet on Holy ground
A consecrated summons
To the throne room of His power
We bow and worship Him alone
When God calls

One great and glorious day
When all our work is done
When we prodigals see heaven
And the Father brings us home
There every tear that was ever shed
Will dry and disappear
When our eyes behold with wonder
As the Father and the Son of God appear

O hear the angels worship Him
Everything that has breath praise the Lord
And every saint that's gone before us
Will be there when we come home

We'll stand before the maker of the universe
When God calls
He lifts our spirit far from all the realms of earth
We tremble at His bidding
With our feet on Holy ground
A consecrated summons
To the throne room of His power
We bow and worship Him alone

Our hearts become the master's own
Oh, the greatest glory man can know
When God calls
When God calls
