I Was Called Songtext
von The Blind Boys of Alabama
I Was Called Songtext
Long time since Talladega
Long way from old Selma
Oh, and I did not stray
All my burdens taken away
I hear my daddy calling, calling me back home
And when it′s my time, only God can know
Stay with God
And He'll stay with you
Rest your worries
And He′ll see you through
I was torn
And He led the way (he led the way)
Carried me through (carried me through)
On nothing but faith (nothing but faith)
He lifted me higher (lifted me higher)
Wing of a song
And I knew, I always knew, I was caught
Sweet harmony of the golden gates
Well, my trailer did not shake our fate
God's been good, so good to me
I followed him
And he followed me
And I was caught
He led me on (He led me on)
Carried me through
On the wing (wing of a song)
He lifted me up (lifted me up)
Showed me the way (showed me the way)
I always knew, always knew
I would call
I was caught
He led the way
He led the way
He carried me through
Carried me through
On nothing but faith
Nothing but faith
He lifted me high
Lifted me high on the wings of a song
Wings of a song
I always knew
Always knew
I was called
I always knew, always knew, I was gone
Long way from old Selma
Oh, and I did not stray
All my burdens taken away
I hear my daddy calling, calling me back home
And when it′s my time, only God can know
Stay with God
And He'll stay with you
Rest your worries
And He′ll see you through
I was torn
And He led the way (he led the way)
Carried me through (carried me through)
On nothing but faith (nothing but faith)
He lifted me higher (lifted me higher)
Wing of a song
And I knew, I always knew, I was caught
Sweet harmony of the golden gates
Well, my trailer did not shake our fate
God's been good, so good to me
I followed him
And he followed me
And I was caught
He led me on (He led me on)
Carried me through
On the wing (wing of a song)
He lifted me up (lifted me up)
Showed me the way (showed me the way)
I always knew, always knew
I would call
I was caught
He led the way
He led the way
He carried me through
Carried me through
On nothing but faith
Nothing but faith
He lifted me high
Lifted me high on the wings of a song
Wings of a song
I always knew
Always knew
I was called
I always knew, always knew, I was gone
