When You Called My Name Lyrics

I want to preach the word, they want ma*sages
I check chapter and verse, they check their watches
I spy another yawn, I might as well be gone
Let's stand and say, "Amen"

Some days I must admit, I still don't get this
Couldn't be it's time to quit when days get like this
I slip into the night then stumble towards the light
Wake up and try again

When You called my name
I didn't know how far the calling went
When You called my name
I didn't know what that word really meant
When I recall Your call I feel so small
When I recall Your call I feel so small

Could be I'm losing touch, could be they don't care
Lord knows I don't know much, Lord knows I've been there
I trip toward my retreat, I fall down at Your feet
Get up and try again

When You called my name
I didn't know how far the calling went
When You called my name
I didn't know what that word really meant
When I recall Your call I feel so small

Lord what did You see when You called out for me?
I start losing heart and then it comes again
Lifted from despair by the prayers of someone
Lifted form despair by the prayers of someone

When You called my name
I didn't know how far this calling went
When You called my name
I didn't know what that word really meant

When You called my name
When You called my name
