The Blind Boys of Alabama - I Was Called

Long time since Talladega, long way from old Selma
Wandered not, 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 called and He led the way
He carried me through on nothing but faith
He lifted me higher, on the wings of a song
I knew, I always knew, I was called
Sweet harmonies of the Golden Gates
Velma Traylor did not shake our faith
God's been good, so good to me
I followed Him, and He followed me
I was called, He led me on
Carried me through, on the wings of a song
He lifted me up, showed me the way
I always knew, always knew, I was called
I was called, He led the way
He carried me through on nothing but faith
He lifted me higher, on the wings of a song
I always knew, always knew, I was called
