	           D                           Bm 
    When I was but a young man,I was wild and full of fire 
      D                                  Bm 
    A youth within my teens, but full of challenge and desire 
      D                              Bm 
    I ran away from home and left my mother and my dad 
      G                    A                 Bm 
    I know it grieved them so to think their only boy went bad 
  
       
        D                                   Bm 
    I fell in with an outlaw band, their names were known quite well 
       D                                  Bm 
    How many times we robbed and plundered, I could never tell 
       D                                 Bm 
    This kind of sinful living, leads only to a fall 
       G               A                  Bm 
    I learned that much and more the night I heard my Master's call 

        
     G                D         G                D 
    One night we rustled cattle, a thousand head or so 
        G                D                 Bm 
    And started then out on the trail that leads to Mexico 
           G               A           D                 G 
    When a norther started blowing and lightning flashed about 
      D                   G             A                 D 
    I thought someone was calling me, I thought I heard a shout 

     
         D                                   F#m 
    Then at that moment lightning struck not twenty yards from me 
        G                                  D 
    And left there was a giant cross where once there was a tree 
         Bm                             Em 
    This time I knew I heard a voice, a voice so sweet and strange 
      F#m                                Bm 
    A voice that came from everywhere, a voice that called my name 


     
       D                                  Bm 
    So frightened I was thinking of sinful deeds I'd done 
       D                                 Bm 
    I failed to see the thousand head of cattle start to run 
       D                                Bm 
    The cattle they stampeded, were running all around 
       G                A             Bm 
    My pony ran but stumbled and it threw me to the ground 

    
      G               D          G                 D 
    I felt the end was near, that death would be the price 
      G              D                        Bm                  
    When another bolt of lightning showed the face of Jesus Christ 
      G                A             D               G 
    And I cried oh Lord forgive me, don't let it happen now 
      D                G             A              D  
   I want to live for you alone, Oh God these words I vow 

  
      D                               F#m 
    My wicked past unfolded and I thought of wasted years 
       G                              D 
    When another bolt of lightning killed a hundred head of steers 
       Bm                            Em 
    And the others rushed on by me and I was left to live 
       F#m                    Bm 
    The Master had a reason,life is his to take or give 

    
       D                           Bm 
    A miracle performed that night, I wasn't meant to die 
        D                            Bm 
    The dead ones formed a barricade nearly six or seven high 
        D                            Bm 
    And right behind it there was I, afraid but safe and sound 
       G                   A           Bm 
    I cried in vain for mercy kneeling there upon the ground 

   
       D                       Bm 
    A pardon I was granted, my sinful soul set free 
       D                       Bm 
    No more to fear the angry waves upon life's stormy seas 
       D                       Bm 
    Forgiven by the love of God, a love that will remain 
       G                   A                   Bm 
    I learned that much and more the night the Saviour called my name
