When I Heard the Voice of God
When I heard the Voice of God…
When God called me,
I didn’t know what to expect!
The words he spoke to me, I won’t forget!
What he said, I remember so vividly.
He woke me up in the night unexpectedly!
When his voice awoke me, I “jumped out of bed.”
I wanted to hear what he said.
What he wanted, was for me to follow him!
I wanted to humbly obey and trust him!
He desired that I have a faithful heart!
He was there for me,
right from the start!
My worldly possessions, I left behind!
A new treasure in Christ, I did find!
Many of my old habits began to leave me…
I felt God’s awesome power all around me!
My thoughts and attentions were undivided.
Everything I needed...
God provided!
I chose to follow him 100 percent!
Fellowship with my savior,
is time well spent!
He’s my beloved and I am his!
He’s with me each day I live!
Won’t you beckon his spirit’s call?
Living for Jesus makes it worth it all!
