Apostle R. D. Henton, pastor of Monument of Faith in Chgo, Ill and my pastor labors over altar call. On this occassion he was laboring over the altar call and not a soul responded. Yet, I felt in my spirit that there was a soul who should have responded. I thought about the possibility that the altar call could have been the last altar call for that soul.

Verse: The preacher told the story of God's love
How Jesus died for our sins and shed his blood
Preacher said the holy moment has come for your soul
Won't you come to the altar let him make you whole

Chorus: When you hear the altar call, make no mistake
It's your name he is calling don't hesitate
for tomorrow may be too late
this may be your last altar call

Verse: Slowly the young man rose from his seat
Quickly moved to the altar and fell on his knees
With tears he cried lord please forgive me
The joy that flooded his soul was clear for all to see

Chorus: When you hear the altar call, make no mistake
It's your name he is calling don't hesitate
for tomorrow may be too late
this may be your last altar call

Verse: His wife had prayed so long for this moment to come
They laughed and talked as they were driving home
Suddenly a car from no one hit them head on
He spoke these words as he lay dying in her arms

Bridge: Thank you lord for saving me
Thank you lord for saving grace
Thank you lord for saving me
Now I' m ready to see your face

Chorus: When you hear the altar call, make no mistake
It's your name he is calling don't hesitate
for tomorrow may be too late
this may l be your last altar call
this may l be your last altar call
