I Call Upon Your Name

VERSE ONE (Richard):

I call upon Your name, for in You my peace is found, You’re the owner of my heart.
I call upon You, LORD, ‘cause You’re all I’ve ever wanted, Yes, You’re all that I need.
Before I was born, You chose me, You called me Your own.
I give You my heart, ’cause You gave me Your all; to You, I surrender.
I give You my life, ‘cause You made me strong, LORD, You’re my defender.

CHORUS:
Take all the glory, LORD, Saviour of the world.
All glory belongs to You, O sweet Saviour of the world.

VERSE 2 (John):
Lord You picked me up out of the miry clay as I was sinking,
You set me on the Rock of Jesus Christ my foundation,
All glory to God His compassion never ending,
Holy is His Name above every other, I will sing His praises
Who is like my God at His presence the earth will shake,
His power beyond all measure as the oceans rage,
The wind will blow the storm so fierce, yet they obey Him,
And He says, “Peace, be still”.

VERSE THREE (Richard):
Your blood was shed on the cross to save me from my sins.
You gave Your life on the cross to save me from my sins.
You did it all for me, Lord, things I can’t repay.
You went through it all for me, Lord, don’t go, please stay.

VERSE 4 (John):
Where else should I turn who else has the gift of life,
There is no other that has made a way, there is no one,
My hope is found in the Name of Jesus,
He is my Saviour eternal life
With the Father
With the Father
With the Father
Through the Son.
