Call My Name

(album: Transitions - 2022)

I am hurting
And this smile on my face
Has taken more than I thought
I could ever muster
After crying myself to sleep the night before
Because the steps that I take
From the bedroom to the bathroom
Are tricky enough to whisper thank you (thank you)
When I don't fall down on the floor

People say they love me
And tell me that they care
But I feel alone with this pain
And it doesn't seem fair
Maybe this Sunday You can
Call my name to heaven
And I need You to say it loud
Like the time my hip hurt enough to cuss
When I wanted to stand and shout
I need You to call my name to heaven
If I happen to cross Your mind
Because I still believe
But I'm having a hard time
And I am angry because
These clothes on my back
Were the best fit I could find
The doctors said my treatment was the best
But my body says that's a lie
Or maybe I heard what I wanted to hear
Got confused my pain and fear
Left me desperate and longing for better days
And this is not what I had in mind
I know people love me
And show me that they care
But I feel alone with this pain
And it does not seem fair
Maybe this Sunday You can
Call my name to heaven
And I need You to say it loud
Because I'm starting to weep at the wrong time
Like when the visitors are announced
I need You to call my name to heaven
If I happen to cross Your mind
Because I still believe
But I'm having a hard time
To be clear I did not mean
To make this moment about me
And my concerns
I should not complain
I lived and I learned
Everyone has
A cross to bear
And this is mine
It's heavy on me (heavy on me)
Comfort is hard to find

1,2,3,4,5

Maybe this Sunday You can
Call my name to heaven
And I need You to say it loud
In case anyone is wondering
Why I have not been around
I need You to call my name to heaven
If I happen to cross Your mind
Because I still believe
But it's hard this time

Oh I need you to call my name to heaven
And I need You to say it loud
In case anyone is wondering
Why I have not been around
I need You to call my name to heaven
If I happen to cross Your mind
Because I still believe
God is a healer
'Cause I still believe
I can be made whole
Because I still believe
Prayer changes things
I still believe
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
I think my help is coming now and I need You
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

Don't pass me by, don't pass me by
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

I still believe heaven can hear me
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

'Cause I still believe
I can be made whole, I can be made whole
And I need You to
I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
(Oh my name, yeah)

I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

Heaven can heal me
If heaven can hear me

I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

Heaven can heal me
If heaven can hear me
Yes I still believe
I need heaven to call me right now
To call my name, oh yes

I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

I need, I need, I need You
To call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

I need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
(I heard you're a healer)

I, I, I, I, need You to call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

(Call)
Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

(Call)
Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

(Call, call, call,)
Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

(Call, call, call,)
Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

(Call, call, call,)
Call my name, call my name
Call my name to heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven
