Will you come and follow me if I but call your name?
Will you go where you don't know and never be the same?
Will you let my love be shown? Will you let my name be known,
will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?
Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name?
Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same?
Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare?
Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?
Will you let the blinded see if I but call your name?
Will you set the prisoners free and never be the same?
Will you kiss the leper clean and do such as this unseen,
and admit to what I mean in you and you in me?
Will you love the "you" you hide if I but call your name?
Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same?
Will you use the faith you've found to reshape the world around,
through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?
Lord your summons echoes true when you but call my name.
Let me turn and follow you and never be the same.
In Your company I'll go where Your love and footsteps show.
Thus I'll move and live and grow in you and you in me.
Will you go where you don't know? Will you let the blind see? Will you let the prisoner free, and will you love the "you" you hide, if but call your name?
Faith is a thing of experience rather than intellect. As the lyrics say, let me turn and follow you and never be the same.

Today in this world of science and technology it is the heart which is often plowed under; the heart is a child innocent and bright. We are analyzed, critiqued, judged and most of all, made less than our full selves with labels of all sorts. The descriptions are often scientific or psychological as if we have no heart; they are often comparing us to animals such as salamanders and the like... Sorry, I'm not a salamander.
Will "You use the faith you find to reshape the world through sight, touch and sound in you and in me? Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same..." Yes, it 's true by all measures subjective and objective, I am not a salamander, a monkey nor a bird or any other animal. The Creator has seen to that and given the mind and spirit of a human being which makes me whole; something that science will not always think to do.
"Lord, your summons echos true when you but call my name."
