When The Spirit Calls Me

lyrics

When the Spirit Calls Me

Got my heart stripped naked
Got my soul laid bare
Seems to be the only way
That I can see You everywhere
I got my mind wide empty
There is nothing left to say
There’s just a tiny voice that’s whisperin’
That it’s always been this way

When the spirit calls me
I want to be waitin’
When the spirit calls me
There will be no hesitatin’

I used to entertain some strange delusions
Not so long ago
I used to think I was goin’ somewhere
I used to think there was somewhere to go
But now I’m lookin’ up at the blue sky
And I know that if I don’t have it by now
What it is I want and need
Sure ain’t gonna come along someplace later anyhow

When the spirit calls me
I want to be waitin’
When the spirit calls me
There will be no hesitatin’

This world will betray you
Till you’re like a beast bein’ led to slaughter for its meat
Who you gonna bow down to, and pray to
But the One who bows before you now to wash your feet?

Now I’m sittin’ on my doorstep
Feelin’ like I’ve just been born
I lost my passport and my papers
My millstone and my crown of thorns
I’ve given up all loyalties
To this ragged bag of bones
Down the street crickets are chirping
As the whole world’s overthrown

When the spirit calls me
I want to be waitin’
When the spirit calls me
There will be no hesitatin’
