Call On The Name Lyrics By Cody Carnes
I’ve heard about Your saving grace
The gift of Your salvation
Is it true that anyone who calls upon Your name
Is welcomed in Your kingdom
I’ve seen You love a wretch like me
I’ve seen You heal the hurting
To the restless anxious wandering heart it’s such good news
My soul can stop it’s searching
I call on the name of Jesus
I want to be saved
I never want to be the same
This life I’m leading it’s all Yours
It’s all Yours
Teach my soul to trust in You
Teach my ears to listen
With all my heart I want to sing the praise You’re due
And follow in Your wisdom
I trust in the name of Jesus
I’m choosing today
I never want to be the same
This life I’m leading it’s all Yours
It’s all Yours
I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord
I believe He rose up from the grave
I believe that God so loved the world
That He sent His only son to save
