When I wandered, when I was alone;
When I said, “I want to be on my own.”
You were walking with me. I didn’t care.
Though all my pain and anger you shared.
You didn’t push me, you just whispered the call.
Lord, I want to answer the call, walk with you so I’ll never fall.
By your side I’m standing tall. You’re my God, you’re my all in all.
I’ll walk with you, Lord… I’ll answer the call.
Then came the day I needed you most.
And there you were, I felt you so close.
What a surprise to find out you’re real,
And to discover that my life you would heal.
And for the first time, I really heard your call.
Lord, I want to answer the call, walk with you so I’ll never fall.
By your side I’m standing tall. You’re my God, you’re my all in all.
I’ll walk with you, Lord… I’ll answer the call.
Now I’m answering and I’m born again. I’ve got a new start ‘cause
I’m forgiven. I know your life was given for me. You took my sin
And you set me free. I’m loving you, God, and I’ll be sharing your call.
Lord, I’ve answered the call,
I’m walking with you so I’ll never fall.
By your side I’m standing tall.
You’re my God, you’re my all in all.
I’m walking with you, Lord… I’ve answered the call. (2x)
