John Waller Album: While I'm Waiting Track: Cling to the Call
Cling to the Call Lyrics
I was walking on water just a week ago Not a care in the world even a day ago Not sure what happened but all of the sudden I saw the crashing waves all around me And once again I had to choose To put my eyes back on You My eyes back on You
And You said... Cling to the call Cling to the peace that guards your heart Cling to the promise Though you stumble you won't fall I will uphold you now just trust me with all Just look at me and I will lead you as you Cling to the call
I could stand without wavering just an hour ago I could not deny You even a moment ago Not sure what happened but three times denied You And once again I've gotta choose To put my eyes back on You My eyes back on You
Now once again I trust You're leading me I choose to lean not On my understanding, Lord And I will sing as I cling...
Song Description: "The revelation in my songs has always preceded where I am in life. I wrote "Cling to the Call" while we were getting ready to move back to Georgia from Colorado. At the time, we didn't know what we were going to do in Georgia, and didn't even have a concrete place to live. Plus, we didn't have the money to move across the country. But we knew we were called to do it, so all we could do was cling to Him. Some people think that clinging to the call means you are called to a specific task and you must cling to that thing. But the task changes. You may not be doing the same thing five years from now. Instead, we are called to cling to Him. We are called to know him." - John Waller
