Call out to Me 

and I will save you.” 

~ 

I wake from the dream 

to hit my knees to pray. 

I ask to be forgiven 

for going astray. 

I ask to be loved 

each and every day. 

I ask for His mercy 

to never go away. 

Tell Him, once again, 

I will obey. 

Where once my heart 

was weighed 

by the wages of sin, 

it now wants to play 

with the righteousness of men. 

~ 

Many years ago, 

He was slain. 

Gave up His life 

so we all might gain. 

Let the blood of Christ 

flow through every vein. 

Let His grace 

wash away the stain 

of transgressions. 

Allow His mercy to rain 

down on your soul. 

Let His spirit be the champagne. 

A numbing drink to 

relinquish your pain. 

Look to the cross 

for the hope you wish to obtain. 

For only He can offer 

you a new domain.
