Chords for The Master's Call - Marty Robbins

_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] When I was but a young man I was wild and full of fire
_ A youth within my teens but [Cm] full of challenge and desire _
[Eb] I ran away from home and left [G] my mother [Ab] and my dad
I know it grieved [Bb] them so to think [Cm] their only boy was bad
I fell in with and out love and their names were known quite well
How many times we robbed and plundered I could never tell
_ This [Eb] kind of sinful living leads only to a fall
[Ab]
I learned that much [Bb] and more the night [Eb] I heard my [Cm] master call
One [Ab] night we rustled [Eb] cattle, [Ab] a thousand head [Eb] or so
[Ab] And started them out [Eb] on the trail [Cm] that leads to Mexico
_ [Ab] But a northern [Bb] started blowing [Eb] and lightning flashed [Bb] about
I thought [Ab] someone was calling me, I [Bb] thought I heard a [Eb] _
shout
_ _ Then at that moment lightning [Gm] struck not twenty yards from me
[Ab] And left there was a giant cross, [Eb] for once there was a tree
And this [Cm] time I knew I heard a voice, [Fm] a voice so sweet and strange
[Eb] A voice that came from everywhere, a [Cm] voice that called my name _ _
_ [Eb] So frightened I was thinking of sinful deeds I'd done
I failed to see the thousand head [Cm] of cattle start to run
The [Eb] cattle they stampeded were running all around
[Ab] My pony ran but [Gm] stumbled and it threw [Cm] me to the ground
[Ab] I felt the end was [Eb] near, [Ab] that death would be the price
When a mighty ball of lightning [Eb]
showed the [Cm] face of Jesus Christ
[Ab] And I cried, oh Lord [Eb] forgive me, don't let it happen now
I want to live [Ab] for you alone, oh God [Eb] these words I vow
_ _ My wicked past _ unfolded, [Gm] I thought of wasted years
[Ab] When another ball of lightning killed [Eb] a hundred head of steers
And the [Cm] others rushed on by me [Fm] and I was left to live
[Eb] The master had a reason, [Cm] life is his to take or give
A miracle _ preformed that night, I wasn't meant to die
_ [Eb] The dead ones formed a barricade, at [Cm] least six or seven high _
[Eb] Right behind it there was I, [Cm] afraid but safe and sound
[Ab] I cried and begged for mercy, kneeling [Cm] there upon the ground
A [Eb] pardon I was granted, my sinful soul set free
_ No more to fear the angry waves [Cm] upon life's stormy sea
_ Forgiven by the love of God, a love that will remain
I [Ab] gave my life and [Bb] soul the night the [Cm] Savior _ called my _ name _ _ _ _ _ _ _
