a duet written originally for two good friends, Laura and Ernie, each deeply involved in their respective houses of worship's music ministries. This version includes all changes made to the score over the ensuing years, hopefully making it better. Thank you Laura, thank you Ernie for all that you have given me.

Call Upon His Name

Joseph Virgilio ©2015 Mr Joe's Music Company

When it seems you bear heavy burdens

And your heart is dark with despair

Turn away from worry and embrace the light and

Call upon the wonderful name of the Lord

When you feel that life holds no meaning

Lost amongst the waste in a bleak world

There's a light that shines forth

Brighter than any star if you

Call upon the merciful name of the Lord; blessed Lord

There is peace when you turn to the Lord

Peace and love in abundance

Just ask the Lord, He will see to your needs

For He loves you

Emptiness and fear lie deep within

When the cloud of sin weighs upon you

There's a silver lining behind the darkest cloud when you

Call upon the name of the Lord
