The Master's Call (Album Version) - Don Edwads[00:00:00]

When I was but a young man I was wild[00:00:20]

And full of fire[00:00:22]

A you'th within my teens but full of challenge and desire[00:00:24]

I ran away from home and left my mother[00:00:28]

And my dad[00:00:31]

I know it grieved them so to[00:00:32]

Think their only boy was bad[00:00:34]

I fell in with an outlaw band[00:00:38]

Their names were known quite well[00:00:40]

How many times we robbed and plundered[00:00:42]

I could never tell[00:00:45]

This kind of sinful livin' well leads only to a fall[00:00:47]

I learned that much and more the night[00:00:51]

I heard my master call[00:00:53]

One night we rustled cattle[00:00:57]

A thousand head or so[00:00:59]

And started them out on the trail that leads to Mexico[00:01:01]

But a norther started blowin'[00:01:05]

And lightnin' flashed about[00:01:07]

I thought someone was calling me[00:01:09]

I thought I heard a shout[00:01:12]

Then at that moment lightning struck not[00:01:15]

Twenty yards from me[00:01:17]

And left there was a giant[00:01:19]

'Cross where once there was a tree[00:01:21]

And this time I knew a heard a voice[00:01:24]

A voice so sweet and strange[00:01:26]

A voice that came from everywhere[00:01:28]

A voice that called my name[00:01:30]

So frightened I was thinking[00:01:34]

Of sinful deeds I'd done[00:01:35]

I failed to see a thousand[00:01:38]

Head of cattle start to run[00:01:40]

The cattle they stampeded were running all around[00:01:42]

My pony ran but stumbled and[00:01:46]

It threw me to the ground[00:01:49]

I felt the end was nearing[00:01:52]

That death would be the price[00:01:54]

When a mighty bolt of lightning[00:01:56]

Showed the face of Jesus Christ[00:01:58]

And I cried oh Lord forgive[00:02:01]

Me don't let it happen now[00:02:02]

I want to live for you alone[00:02:05]

Oh God these words I vow[00:02:07]

My wicked life unfolded and I thought of wasted years[00:02:10]

When another bolt of lightning[00:02:15]

Killed a hundred head of steers[00:02:17]

And the others rushed on by me and[00:02:19]

I was left to live[00:02:21]

The master had a reason life was his to take and give[00:02:23]

A miracle performed that night I wasn't meant to die[00:02:29]

The dead ones formed a barricade least 6 or 7 high[00:02:33]

Right behind it there was I afraid but safe and sound[00:02:38]

I cried and begged for mercy[00:02:42]

Kneeling there upon the ground[00:02:44]

A pardon I was granted my sinful soul set free[00:02:46]

No more to fear the angry waves upon life's stormy sea[00:02:51]

Forgiven by the love of God a love that will remain[00:02:55]

I gave my life and soul[00:02:59]

The night the savior called my name[00:03:01]

I gave my life and soul[00:03:05]

The night the savior called my name[00:03:08]
