Some songs are more than melodies—they’re moments wrapped in music, carrying messages that touch the deepest parts of our souls. I Heard My Savior Calling Me is one of those songs. It’s a heartfelt gospel tune that speaks directly to the experience of redemption, the feeling of being lost and then found, and the unmistakable voice of faith calling us home.
This song beautifully captures the moment when a wandering soul finally hears the call of grace. Whether it’s in the stillness of the night or in the middle of life’s storms, the lyrics resonate with anyone who has ever felt the weight of their past but also the hope of a new beginning. It’s a reminder that no matter how far we’ve strayed, the voice of the Savior is always calling—offering love, forgiveness, and a path back home.
There’s something undeniably moving about the way this song unfolds. The melody is simple yet powerful, carrying the weight of its message with sincerity. It doesn’t try to impress with grandiosity—it doesn’t need to. Instead, it speaks straight to the heart, much like an old hymn sung by a weary traveler finally finding peace at the end of the road.
For those who have ever struggled, doubted, or felt unworthy, I Heard My Savior Calling Me is like a warm embrace, a reminder that grace is not reserved for the perfect but given freely to those who seek it. And sometimes, all it takes is a song like this to remind us that we are never too far gone to hear that call

Lyrics
There was a great revival in our little country church
People came from miles around to hear about God’s word
Anointed in the spirit you could feel it in the air
My life was changed that night as I bowed my head in prayer
CHORUS
I heard my Savior calling me
On that blessed night I fell down on my knees
Well I raised my hand to Jesus pure faith had set me free
Praise God I see the light my Savior’s calling me
BREAK- E B E (last line of Chorus)
I’m so thankful for a Savior who would make the sacrifice
In a selfless loving gesture giving us eternal life
Yes an offer for the taking listen with an open heart
It’s a choice that’s up to you, hear the Savior calling too
CHORUS
CHORUS
Praise God I see the light I heard my Savior calling me
