Our Calling (Reading My Lyrics)
Lord, give me the gift
We are called to be your servants of music
Let us spread positivity and influence the world
With your power and your grace, all sadness will be no more
We are called to influence music with the help of the lord
He has called us to be an example of his work
Let us write out to our souls and write out to our hearts
Spread the good word, and no one will be torn apart
Lord, call us to battle with your gracious songs
Help us spread your message, the scriptures have been told
You called the sinners to you and founded the church
So that we could be in heaven long as we keep your word
Cause you want us to be with you in eternal life
Let us fight for our life, fight the good, good fight
Let us accept your love and grace, and give you all our hearts
So that you may return, and gift us back with even more
Lord, call us to be your preacher in the darkest of the nights
Help to let these people know that there shall be no fright
You defeated all of darkness when you died upon the cross
So let us carry up our cross, and your home shall also be ours
Lord, call us to spread your good, good word
You gave down your life for those who gave you hurt
You healed the sick and gave sight to the blind
And you forgave those who betrayed you when they saw you weep and die
Lord, your mercy is never ending, call us to your home!
For with the power of heaven, we shall never be alone
You came down to the earth to save us from our sins
And prepare us for the gates of heaven
So that we may be forgiven, join each other hand in hand
Lord, you said the kingdom of heaven is at hand
You called sinners and the weak so that your word could be heard
We are the church militant and fighting for our lives
So, when it's time for our calling, please welcome us into eternal life
O lord, please hear our prayer, we have heard the scriptures
We have stepped into the light, and we know what can be heard
By the power of our faith, the darkness shall be no more
Cause you conquered death, defeated Satan
Now it's our turn
Help these people know that they really can be saved
If they choose to hear your word and they choose to know your name
You have saved us for a home in a world that's not our own
Give us strength to fight the good fight, so that it shall be our own
You never want us to feel guilty, you just want us to feel safe
You loved us so much, you went through hell just to save us from all vain
Help us know that you just want our love so heaven can be known
So that when our time comes, we all know what we can do
Holy spirit, flow through us and fill us with your words
We know what to proclaim, so please, gift us with the strength
