[Verse 1]
I looked in the mirror, saw a sinner staring back
Fell short of the glory, no way to fill that gap
The wages of my sin was a debt I couldn't pay
But grace showed up on a Friday and rolled the stone away

[Pre-Chorus]
Not by works, not by what I've done
It's a gift from the Father, through the Son

[Chorus]
So I'm calling on Jesus, Lord, calling on Jesus
Believing in my heart, You rose up from the grave
I'm confessing with my mouth, turning from the pain
Whoever calls on Jesus — whoever calls that name — will be saved

[Verse 2]
Romans said it plain, while I was still a mess
Christ died for the sinner, He didn't wait 'til I confessed
So I'm laying down my pride at the foot of that old tree
Trading in my chains for the life He gives for free

[Pre-Chorus]
Not by works, not by what I've done
It's a gift from the Father, through the Son

[Chorus]
So I'm calling on Jesus, Lord, calling on Jesus
Believing in my heart, You rose up from the grave
I'm confessing with my mouth, turning from the pain
Whoever calls on Jesus — whoever calls that name — will be saved

[Bridge]
Now I know that I know that I know I'm Yours
Not a doubt in my mind, I've got the promise sure
Wrote it down in 1 John — eternal life's my name
So I'll sing it 'til I'm home — I'll sing it just the same

[Chorus (out)]
I called on Jesus, Lord, called on Jesus
Believed in my heart, You rose up from the grave
Confessed with my mouth, walked out of the rain
Called on the name of Jesus — and I'll never be the same
