Call On Him
It’s coming up on a year since Lou Kahlenbeck left us. Going through some old audio files today I ran across a really ragged, unfinished demo of a song he wrote that he, Rick Burkholder and I were working on many years ago. I tried to scavenge the vocals from it, but the quality just isn’t there and neither is the skill needed for me to do the scavenging. I wanted to share (with permission) this cover – Lou wrote some beautiful songs – this is one of his I’ve always loved.
Gone, but not even close to forgotten, Papki… See you soon…
Lyrics:
There’s a time in our lives
When we all must face that fear
Where do we go from here?
A stumbling block or a great stone wall
That you think you can’t go through
But you know what we must do
Call on Him, you know it can’t do harm
Call on Him, He’ll lift you up with a strong right arm
Call on Him, You know He’ll see you through
Call on Him
There’s a place in your heart Full of burdens you can’t bear They cause you not to care
The weight’s too great,
But it’s not too late to lift up that burdened heart
Should have done it from the start
Call on Him, you know it can’t do harm
Call on Him, He’ll lift you up with a strong right arm
Call on Him, You know He’ll see you through
Just take to heart these words of life
Which nothing can compare
You know He will be there Call on Him
There’s a time in our lives
When we all must face that fear
Where do we go from here?
A stumbling block or a great stone wall
that you think you can’t go through
Well, you know what we must do
Call on Him, you know it can’t do harm
Call on Him, He’ll lift you up with a strong right arm
Call on Him, You know He’ll see you through
Call on Him…
