He's Still Calling You

On a dark, desert highway; cool wind in your hair
You listen to the Eagles and you try not to care
Warm smell of your tires burnin' up the road
"You can take my body, but please don't take my soul!"
He was calling you ... He was calling you
He was calling ... you
The years since you were young have come and gone
But your life has never changed
You wonder where you went wrong
And you're feeling so de-ranged
I know, I see ... you hurt and you cry!
How long, how long will you run?
How long, how long will you hide?
How long, how long will you de-ny you need the Lord?
You say it was "that crazy Vietnam war!"
That got you in this mess
Ever since that "useless Vietnam war!"
You've been feeling so de-pressed
And those valium you de-pend on
They've got you! and they won't let you go-----oh no!
How long, how long will you run?
How long, how long will you hide?
How long, how long will you de-ny you need the Lord?
He's still calling you ... He's still calling you
He's still calling ... you
Jesus knows, Jesus knows every part of you
Even the very heart of you
Jesus loves, Jesus loves every part of you
Oh even the very heart of you!
He's still calling you... He's still calling you
God's still calling ... you
