"Call On The Lord" is a heartfelt, worship-centered song that calls believers to seek the presence of God with reverence, passion, and longing. The lyrics explore themes of divine glory, deliverance, and guidance, urging listeners to open their hearts and minds to Gods voice and His power. With a combination of personal reflection and communal praise, the song emphasizes Gods majesty, purity, and peace, alongside a call to worship and devotion. The chorus reinforces the exaltation of God's sovereignty, with declarations of His rule "on high" and His holiness. Throughout the song, theres a strong invitation to call upon God for salvation and transformation, particularly in the bridge and outro, where the singer expresses a fervent desire to live for God eternally, praising and worshiping Him forever. The imagery of fire, valleys, and mountaintops highlights the awe and passion experienced in God's presence, while the closing lines reflect a deep yearning for God to ignite a passionate, unceasing devotion. Musically, the song builds from a contemplative tone into a powerful anthem, with moments of quiet intimacy leading to a celebratory crescendo. The repeated call to "call on the Lord" serves as both an invitation and a reminder of God's readiness to answer, making this a song of both personal devotion and collective worship.

Call On The Lord Verse 1 Open our eyes Lord that we may see Your glory Open our ears that we may hear Your voice Verse 2 Deliver us O God we call on You today Show us the way that we may follow You Chorus Glory to the Lord, who lives on high. Magnify His name, He rules from on high. Verse 3 The earth gives Him glory, for He is King. His name is pure and holy, for He is peace. Verse 4 Come let us worship Him for He is the way Call on the Lord and you shall be saved Verse 5 Ive searched through the valleys; theres none like You, Lord. Theres fire upon the mountaintop, is that You, Lord? Chorus Oh Lord, You answer by fire, and Your words burn with desire. Before this body retires, set my passion, Lord, on fire. Verse 6 I wanna sing Your praise forever, I wanna dance for You forever. I wanna sing to Your glory forever, I wanna live for You forever. Verse 7 Come let us worship Him for He is the way Call on the Lord and you shall be saved Chorus Hallelujah to You, the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Your dwelling place, Lord, is what I call home.
