I
THE PHONE RANG ONE MORNING
A VOICE WAS HEARD SPEAKING
“PLEASE TELL MY MOM TO BELIEVE IN THE SON
FIND HER WAY TO THE KINGDOM”

II
AND THE MOTHER WAS TOLD
THAT HER SON JUST CALLED
TO THE KINGDOM HE WANTED HER TO GO
THE MOTHER WAS STARTLED
WITH THE NEWS THAT SHE HEARD
TO THE MINISTER SHE TOLD
THAT HER SON WHO JUST CALLED
WAS A WEEK DEAD AND COLD

CHORUS I
YES, EVEN THE DEAD PRAYS FOR THE LIVING
AND EVERY SOUL KNOWS HIM AS KING
THE SON IS THE WAY
YOU MUST KNOW IT TODAY
AND BEFORE DEATH COMES KNOCKING
ACCEPT HIM AS KING

CHORUS II
‘TWAS HIS LOVE FOR HIS MOTHER
THAT MADE HIM REMEMBER
TO TELL HER THE TRUTH
THAT SHE OUGHT TO SURRENDER
YES, THE FATHER’S LOVE
MAKES US ALWAYS REMEMBER
THAT THE SON IS THE WAY
AND WE OUGHT TO SURRENDER
