I heard someone calling me one night
It scared me I was ready to fight

I returned to sleep thinking nothing of it
I was perplexed it stuck in my mind I admit 

The next night as I was gazeing at the stars
Sure enough, the call of my name came from afar

The third night I decided to respond
I was burning up with a fever
I just knew in my heart it was the Grim Reaper

I said here I am what do you want
Have you come for my soul to take
In a trembling voice, I cried out please spare me I promise ammends to make

A loving tender voice said don't be alarmed 
I come to bring Love not to harm

I could only cry as His love filled my soul
Something incredible flowed through me making me whole

Thank You, God, for seeking me out that night
That your Forgiving Son Jesus came into my life
