Eu Fui Chamado

I was called by Jesus
And I gave my heart
I’ll also carry my cross
I was called by Jesus

I heard that some time ago
Our brothers in faith, before cruel kings
Were forced to choose
Renounce their faith, or die

And one by one they gave in
For they could not deny their Lord
And in the freezing cold of this place
I can almost hear their voices echoing

I was called by Jesus
And I gave my heart
I’ll also carry my cross
I was called by Jesus

The years come and go, and time has passed
But His cause, no, it hasn’t died
Now it’s our turn to embrace the cross
Renounce the world and follow Jesus

And one by one we’ll give ourselves
Lay our whole lives down on this altar
For when Heaven opens, and the trumpet sounds
We’ll be together, shouting

I was called by Jesus
And I gave my heart
I’ll also carry my cross
I was called by Jesus

For my Jesus who heard my cry
And in my place bore my pain
I’ll also carry my cross
I was called by Jesus

I was called by Jesus
And I gave my heart
I’ll also carry my cross
I was called by Jesus
