There is a call none will chase
their hearts are longing for it, but there need they never face
The need to call out to the caller, as their ability is insufficient
It is this call that is not heard as their pride clouds their eyes giving them a sense of omniscience
For it is they who think they know how to do the work laid out in Your word
But the still small voice in their ministry, oh Lord it is rarely heard
Call out louder God as more need to be on their knees
So many who have no Savior, are dying in helpless pleas
For their plea is for a messenger, the one called out by Your Son
It is that one they need to hear Your word from and their broken pieces may become one
God is calling so many to be transformed to his way
Oh the call is echoing but Lord few will pray
The world is a broken cistern crying for its potter
Lord we need your hands and feet assembled, your body working, restoring the clay with Your living water
As the call rings out will there be one on their knees to hear?
On our knees in prayer You quell our insecurity and dismiss our petty fear
So we may minister Your Truth and carry out Your great commission.
Oh lord it is obtainable to all with open ears, and have not committed prayer to omission
A call none will chase as it is risky and calls us out of the norms
To reach across our streets, our neighborhood and our dorms
It is a call of anguish, a call to step out in faith
out of the boat into a raging ocean as Peter we will follow what your voice saith
Pray without ceasing as the troubles will never cease
We are powerless without God’s hand and His peace.
Oh the call is there just reach out to it on your knees
For what the world has to gain is a lost soul and judgement only Your Son can appease
Pray without ceasing, pray as it is our power
For we need Your anointing oil and Your strength and righteousness on us to shower
Lord may these last lines be my prayer, a prayer for more to pursue a call none will chase
For apart from Your holy identity freely given, they are worthless accidents, condemned to death without grace
Is it done for them? Lord don’t let it be.
if they won’t chase the call, call out to me
Is it done for them? Lord don’t let it be.
if they won’t go for You Lord send me.
