lirik lagu michael martin murphey – master’s call
[verse 1]
when i was but a young man, i was wild and full of fire
a youth within my teens, but full of challenge and desire
i ran away from home and left my mother and my dad
i know it grieved them so to think their only boy went bad
i fell in with an outlaw band, their names were known quite well
how many times we robbed and plundered, i could never tell
this kind of sinful living, leads only to a fall
i learned that much and more the night i heard my master’s call
[verse 2]
one night we rustled cattle, a thousand head or so
and started then out on the trail that leads to mexico
when a norther started blowing and lightning flashed about
i thought someone was calling me, i thought i heard a shout
then at that moment lightning struck not twenty yards from me
and left there was a giant cross where once there was a tree
this time i knew i heard a voice, a voice so sweet and strange
a voice that came from everywhere, a voice that called my name
[verse 3]
so frightened i was thinking of the sinful deeds i’d done
i failed to see a thousand head of cattle start to run
the cattle they stampeded, were running all around
my pony ran but stumbled and it threw me to the ground
i felt the end was near, that death would be the price
when a mighty bolt of lightning showed the face of jesus christ
and i cried oh lord forgive me, don’t let it happen now
i want to live for you alone, oh god these words i vow
my wicked past unfolded and i thought of wasted years
when a might bolt of lightning k!lled a hundred head of steers
and the others rushed on by me and i was left to live
the master had a reason, life is his to take or give
[verse 4]
a miracle performed that night, i wasn’t meant to die
the dead ones formed a barricade nearly six or seven high
and right behind it there was i, afraid but safe and sound
i cried in vain for mercy kneeling there upon the ground
a pardon i was granted, my sinful soul set free
no more to fear the angry waves upon life’s stormy seas
forgiven by the love of god, a love that will remain
i learned that much and more the night the saviour called my name
