I Heard a Voice In Night-Time Calling

I heard a voice in the night-time calling As soft and gentle as a summer breeze. I heard a voice in the night-time calling It flowed about me as a gentle wind through the trees. I heard a voice in the night-time calling One that was as clear as a lark in the trees. A sound that made me wonder, If the call was coming on a far-off breeze. My heart leapt at the sound So gentle and yet so real. It made me wonder if I was dreaming, It all seemed just so surreal. I heard a voice in the night-time calling, As soft and gentle as a summer breeze, I rose in the night, looked far and near, And answering said, "I am here". When a voice is heard in the night-time calling As soft and gentle as a summer breeze. When a voice is heard in the night-time calling That it seems to flow as a gentle wind through the trees. It is a voice calling each of us A voice from far, yet so near. It is the voice of the blessed one Seeking - one to come here.
