No Higher Call

Lyrics

Verse 1
There are voices calling
“Live your best life now”
“Revel in your youth”
But of all the voices
There is only one
That is the voice of truth (John 14:6, John 18:37)

Chorus
He calls you to follow
And to take up your cross (Matt. 10:38, Matt. 16:24, Mark 8:34, Mark 10:21, Luke 9:23)
For the joy set before you (Heb. 12:2)
Is worth any cost (Matt. 13:44-46, Luke 14:33)
To surrender your all (Rom. 12:1, Luke 14:33)
There is no higher call than this

Verse 2
There were voices calling
“Free Judea now”
“Break the chains of Rome” (Luke 24:21, Acts 1:6)
But the voice that called them
Had a different plan
And a different home (John 18:36, Heb. 11:16, John 17:14-16)

Repeat chorus

Bridge
He calls you from darkness (Col. 1:13, I Pet. 2:9, Acts 26:18, John 8:12)
Then He calls you His friend (John 15:15)
He will call you through suffering (I Pet. 4:13, I Pet. 5:10, Phil. 1:29)
To a crown in the end (Rev. 2:10, II Tim. 2:12, James 1:12, II Tim. 4:8)

Repeat chorus

Tag
There is no higher call
There is no higher call than this
