Callin' You
If I have ever had something which became a cliché in my lyric themes, it would be the theme of salvation. This theme pops up in so many of my songs, and especially in my earlier songs, where this was/is the theme of most importance.
These lyrics reflect different aspects of the theme of needing Jesus in your life and hopefully prompting the listener to respond. I have had many people testify to having been saved as a direct or indirect result of having listened to one of my evangelistic songs. What an honor.
"Callin' You" is another evangelistic song that was really more about the music than the lyric. This does not minimize the importance of the lyric, but some songs are more about framing interesting music around the lyric, while maybe the thought of the lyric has been stated already in other songs. Therefore, the lyric becomes an extension of a theme already stated, while the music is something I haven't done before. To me, "Callin' You" was a great little pop song. Good hook, good lyric, and a fun song to begin an album.
