I Only Need to Call

lyricist: J. F.
Composer: Z. V.

Oh Lord

Your Name is sweet! And from it flows

A river full of peace and light and life

As on it

I cast all my anxious woes.

I need not think! I only need to call.

In this way

I am less

and You are all.

I need not think! I only need to call.

In this way

I am less

and You are all.

It is so rich to call and to receive—

To soak Your Spirit into all my being.

As I absorb Your riches

I believe

And You are real to me. Oh

but to know

You

dearest Lord

and have a deeper flow!

And You are real to me. Oh

but to know

You

dearest Lord

and have a deeper flow!

You are a treasury of endless wealth

So readily accessible to me!

How great! These riches constitute my health

My great supply

my strength

my life

my all—

So effortless! I only need to call.

My great supply

my strength

my life

my all—

So effortless! I only need to call.

Continually soften all my heart

To cling to You and to receive Your Word.

Lord

make Your home in every inward part

And

as I call

make deeper every root

That I might grow and bear You richest fruit.

And

as I call

make deeper every root

That I might grow and bear You richest fruit.
