God's Call Is Best
Author: Jessie Mae Norris Hymnal: Children's Hymnal #225 (1957) Topics: God's Call First Line: The call of the road and the pastures so green Lyrics: 1 The call of the road and the pastures so green,
The call of the birds as they warble unseen,
The call of the wind as it sings through the trees—
God's call is supreme; so much greater than these.
2 The call of the brook as it murmurs a song,
The call of the river in rippling along,
The call of the ocean waves' restless white crest—
These calls are most precious, but God's call is best.
3 The rest of green pastures, the birds' songs, the breeze,
The calm of the brook on its way to the seas,
The strength of the ocean, and many things more
Are all in the blessing God's call holds in store.
4 Let's answer the call as we all want to do,
With hearts most courageous, with faith that is true;
We'll find at day's end a clam feeling of rest,
Assured by his Spirit that God's call is best.

shall triumph over all. Languages: English Tune Title: THE CALL OF GOD

to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.

your life to live, your joy to share.

True joy on earth below,
A home in heaven above.

Returning to His fold;
His arm will safely keep,
His love will ne'er grow cold.

In Jesus you will find
A sure and safe relief,
A loving Friend and kind.

Oft whisper'd to thy secret soul,
Urged thee to leave the ways of sin,
And yield thy heart to God’s control?
2 Sinner, it was a heavenly voice—
It was the Spirit’s gracious call;
It bade thee make the better choice,
And haste to seek in Christ thine all.
3 Spurn not the call to life and light;
Regard in time the warning kind;
That call thou may'st not always slight,
And yet the gate of mercy find.
4 God’s Spirit will not always strive
With harden'd, self-destroying man;
Ye, who persist His love to grieve,
May never hear His voice again.
