For The Sake Of The Call

Lyrics

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
 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 water's 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 to what they would gain
 For Jesus had called them by name
 And they answered
 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
 The sake of the call
 Drawn like the rivers are drawn to the sea
 There's no turning back, for the water cannot help but flow
 Once we hear 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
 Not for the sake of a creed or a cause
 Not for a dream or a promise
 Simply because it is Jesus who called
 And if we believe we'll obey
 We will abandon it all for the sake of the call
 No other reason at all but the sake of the call
 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
 For the sake of the call
 We will abandon it all for the sake of the call
 No other reason at all
 We will abandon it all
 No other reason at all
 We will abandon it all (fade out)
