I’ll go when you call me
I’ll run when you tell me where to go
We are desert walkers under shaded clouds
Your fire shows there’s more of you to know

Let our idols fail
Vanity subside
We will see the beauty in our lives

When I hear you call my name
When I hear you call my name
Send me to the edge of the earth
Show me what a life is worth
When I hear you call my name

I will wait in the darkest hours
For you will be a light on this road
Lead me out to the ground I’ve never walked on
Only to rely on you alone

This is my Father’s world
And to my listening ear
My heart is still at home
When I hear you call my name

Behind the Song:
CHARLIE LOWELL: A prayer that we might know the value of each individual life- and our calling to value dignity and story as we bring God's hope into brokenness.

DAN HASELTINE: Good community never lets us stay in its safe fold for long, rather it allows our hearts to venture out to harms way in search of God.

STEVE MASON: God calling your name means being known by the creator of everything, who redeems us and everything around us in beauty.

MATT ODMARK: To think that God knows us by name has deep and far-reaching implications. To actually hear him use it changes everything.
