History is Calling Me

We all fade into history
And we all carry a legacy
What will mine say of me

History is calling me
I fought what I thought
A good fight of my own might
Without GOD even in sight

History is calling me
Young and full of strength
It made no sense
To negotiate, cooperate or delegate
Just annihilate and devastate

History is calling me
Now I am aged
No longer full of rage
Forced to be still
I can see GOD’S will

History is calling me
How do I correct my legacy
I desire to go peacefully
Into eternity
But I need a Savior to speak for me

History is calling me
Before victory can be won
I need someone to undo the damage
I have done

History is calling me
I need someone to speak for me
To justify my sinful legacy

History is calling me
To the Father from the Son
I need my Savior to proclaim
Let his victory rest upon
What I have done

History is calling me
Thank you Father for sending a savior
To rectify my sinful behavior
All I have to do is believe
And I can receive
A clean legacy

History is calling me
LORD thank you for allowing me
To go into eternity
Peacefully and sin free

History is calling me...
