Here I Am

I am lying here
In the dark so deep
And I hear a noise
That disturbs my sleep.
I can hear a voice
And I don't know why
But it calls my name
And so, I reply
Here I am.

Every word is clear
And they wake my heart
So, I must arise
Just to make a start.
I can hear a voice
I cannot deny
For it calls my name
And so, I reply
Here I am.

 	Speak, Lord, Your servant is listening.
 	What do You want me to do?
 	Here I am at Your command.
 	My heart is open to You.

I am listening, Lord.
I can hear Your voice.
When You call to me
I must make a choice.
And I hear Your voice
Like a gentle sigh.
You have called my name
And so, I reply
Here I am.
