The Master Calleth
by Barbara Philbrook

The Master calleth both you and me,
and that you hear Him is my plea.

Listen carefully. Hear Him call your name.
God loves each of us the very same

Ever heard someone say,
"The Lord answered me when I called on Him today."?

Some think that it means we call on God first,
but I tell you brother it's God who gave you the thirst.

God gave you the longing that festers in your heart.
Just as He created the Red Sea for Moses to part.

God made each of us desire His love,
so we would accept the gift of a home above.

God is the Creator you see,
and desires that with Him we'll all one day be.

The Master calleth and wants us each to come home.
Please don't ignore Him and be left here alone.
