I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah
From the time I was young
I knew that God had called me
I used to say that I would be in full time ministry
But when I grew up I changed my mind, I changed the vision for my life
I did not wanna go that far with God woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
Then I had many relationships
That turned my heart away from God
They took me away from the call of the
mission
Before I knew it I was down and out
I had no more zeal for the things of God
And I didn’t want to go all out with God woah woah mhm
I got the call of God woah
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah
Then I gave myself to schooling
I wanted to study more and more
thought to myself, if I have many degrees I’d really be rich; all my dreams would come true
I was all out for education
But I didn’t wanna go all out for God woah woah mhm
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far
I felt that God should wait for me
Whilst I sort myself out
I said: when I’m old, when I retire
I'll serve the lord, but life goes by so quickly Circumstances killed my call to full time ministry
Why didn’t I wanna go all out for God woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far
Now How can I turn around
And do what I didn’t wanna do
Why was I so wise in my own eyes
Now that I’m old
I wish I’d listened to the call of God
I wish I had said yes but pharaoh did not let me go
why didn’t wanna go all out with God
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
So let me tell you my friends
When you hear the call to full time ministry Say yes, make haste, take up your cross yeah
No time to lose, there is no time to fool around Your life is a vapor it vanishes so very quickly
If you don’t believe me
You will end up singing this same song
That’s true
you’ve got the call of God
But you didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
You’ve got the call of God oh
But you didn’t wanna go that far woah woah
I got the call of God
But I didn’t wanna go that far woah
