I Called You By Name

This started from music I wrote and sent to Larry. Larry wrote the lyrics. It's a little different from most of our songs, but we enjoy working in different styles.

I asked Samuel to help us record it. He previously sang our song How Long?. He got two other members of his Rizyn team, Nanya and Emma, to sing with him. I played guitar on the recording. Hope you enjoy it! - Elton September 26, 2024

(Verse 1)
In this world there's times of trouble
When your faith is really tried
Be assured you're not forsaken, lost in time
Child, I did not leave you here
To be consumed by doubt and fear
I called you by name
And you are mine

Na na na...

(Verse 2)
I have given you a promise
And a life that has no end
In the darkest night, my light will surely shine
When you think you've lost your way
Take a moment, child, and pray
I called you by name
And you are mine

Na na na...

(Verse 3)
I am here to part the waters
I am here to calm the sea
I am here the lost and wandering soul to find
Put away all doubt and fear
Be assured that I am near
I called you by name
And you are mine
I called you by name
And you are mine
I called you by name
And you are mine

Na na na...
