We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all but the sake of the call Wholly devoted to live and to die for the sake of the call Nobody stood and applauded them So they knew from the start This road would not lead to fame All they really knew for sure Was Jesus had called to them He said "come follow Me" and they came With reckless abandon, they came Empty nets lying there at the water's edge Told a story that few could believe And none could explain How some crazy fishermen agreed to go where Jesus lead With no thought to what they would gain For Jesus had called them by name And they answered... We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all but the sake of the call Wholly devoted to live and to die for the sake of the call The sake of the call Drawn like the rivers are drawn to the sea There's no turning back, for the water cannot help but flow
Once we hear the Savior's call, we'll follow wherever He leads Because of the love He has shown And because He has called us to go We will answer... We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all but the sake of the call Wholly devoted to live and to die Not for the sake of a creed or a cause Not for a dream or a promise Simply because it is Jesus who called And if we believe we'll obey We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all but the sake of the call We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all but the sake of the call Wholly devoted to live and to die for the sake of the call For the sake of the call We will abandon it all for the sake of the call No other reason at all We will abandon it all No other reason at all We will abandon it all (fade out)
