don edwards - the master's call كلمات أغنية

when i was but a young man i was wild and full of fire
a youth within my teens but full of challenge and desire
i ran away from home and left my mother and my dad
i know it grieved them so to think their only boy was bad

i fell in with an outlaw band, their names were known quite well
how many times we robbed and plundered, i could never tell
this kind of sinful livin’ leads only to a fall
i learned that much and more the night i heard my master call

one night we rustled cattle, a thousand head or so
and started them out on the trail that leads to mexico
but a norther started blowin’ and lightnin’ flashed about
i thought someone was calling me i thought i heard a shout

then at that moment lightning struck not twenty yards from me
and left there was a giant cross where once there was a tree
and this time i knew a heard a voice, a voice so sweet and strange
a voice that came from everywhere, a voice that called my name

so frightened i was thinking of sinful deeds i’d done
i failed to see a thousand head of cattle start to run
the cattle they stampeded, were running all around
my pony ran but stumbled and it threw me to the ground

i felt the end was nearing, that death would be the price
when a mighty bolt of lightning showed the face of jesus christ
and i cried, “oh lord, forgive me, don’t let it happen now
i want to live for you alone, oh god these words i vow”

my wicked past unfolded, i thought of wasted years
when another bolt of lightning k!lled a hundred head of steers
and the others rushed on by me, and i was left to live
the master had a reason, life is his to take and give

a miracle performed that night, i wasn’t meant to die
the dead ones formed a barricade least 6 or 7 high
right behind it, there was i, afraid but safe and sound
i cried and begged for mercy kneeling there upon the ground

a pardon i was granted, my sinful soul set free
no more to fear the angry waves upon life’s stormy sea
forgiven by the love of god, a love that will remain
i gave my life and soul the night the savior called my name
