I Call Your Name

Verse 1
When lightning falls and waters rise
I will trust in You
When fear begins to war inside
I will trust in You
If I lose my way
You’re my God, You’re my God
You’ll cast the doubts away with Your Word

Chorus
I call Your Name
I call Your Name
The mountains move,
You still remain
You’re the God who saves
Oh Jesus, how I call Your Name

Verse 2
When darkness comes and fills the sky
I will trust in You
When fires rage on every side
I will trust in You
Even in the storm
You’re my God, You’re my God
You’ll lead me to the Rock that’s higher

Chorus

Bridge
There is no mountain
There is no valley
That can stop Your love
There’s nothing stronger
There’s nothing greater
That can stop Your love

Chorus (2X)

Bridge 2
There is no one like You
There is no one like You
There is no one like You
There is no one like You

Chorus

Song Story:
We wrote this song in response to the California fires in Napa Valley and floods in Dallas Texas. People were traumatized and uncertain about their futures. We wanted to give them a song they could sing in their moment of chaos and trial that reminded them God was trustworthy and to call on His name in their moment of need.
