Steven Curtis Chapman - For The Sake of The Call

When you say 'yes' to God ano ang gagawin mo? Ako talaga pinag-iisapan ko yung tungkol sa pagiging misyonaryo. Sabi ko,"ang hirap... ang hirap...." Pero ng marinig ko ang kantang to nung nasa high school ako nabago ang pananaw ko sa pagiging misyonaryo ko. Kahit gano kalayo ang lugar sumasama ako... Kahit saan man ako ma assign go pa rin ng go. Kahit mapagalitan go pa rin ng go. Kahit walang pera, Yes! pa rin. Ganyan ang buhay ko nung high school. "Always on FIRE!"  Habang tumatagal biglang nawala yung lakas ng loob, yung feeling na "I am on FIRE in my service!". hmmmm... Nawala din ako sa pagseserve at bumabalik din naman. Pero yung tamis at init ng service hinahanap ko. Family problems, love life and friendship... Urghhh! Eto lagi ang tinitira ni Satan. Salamat sayo S dahil sa Panginoon pa rin ako bumabalik.

To make this short, I ended serving him again 360 degress U turn... Though I am not living in our province but serving Him in my current location. I met God again and as I go searching for the fire in my heart and hearing songs in the Youtube I found this song again. Thank you daddy God and Mama Mary! Enjoy the music and "LET'S GO!" ^_^

***FOR THE SAKE OF THE CALL***

Nobody stood and applauded them

So they knew from the start

This road would not lead to fame

All they really knew for sure was Jesus had called to them

He said "Come follow me" and they came

With reckless abandon they came

Empty nets lying there at the waters edge

Told a story that few could believe and none could explain

How some crazy fishermen agreed to go where Jesus lead

With no thought for what they would gain

For Jesus had called them by name and they answered

CHORUS;

We will abandon it all for the sake of the call

No other reason at all but the sake of the call

Wholly devoted to live and to die

For the sake of the call

Drawn like the rivers are drawn to the sea

No turning back for the water cannot help bu flow

Once we heart the Savior's call we'll follow wherever he leads

Because of the love He has shown

And because he has called us to go we will answer

We will abandon it all for the sake of the call

No other reason at all but the sake of the call

Wholly devoted to live and to die

BRIDGE:

Not for the sake of a creed or a cause

Not for a dream or a promise

Simply because it is Jesus who calls

And if we believe we'll obey

CHORUS
