#720: We Are Called

[lutheranhymns]

I've found this to be fairly popular in congregations I've worshipped in, and...I don't know, I just don't think it's that good? There's nothing offensive or hypocritical about it, and the refrain is a loose paraphrase of the popular Micah verse: "[the Lord asks you to] do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God." I don't know, I think this arrangement is maybe too...peppy for me. (I wouldn't necessarily even classify it as a praise song, although it was written in the eighties and has a little bit of that style musically. The "extra five measures of rest for instrumentals" at the end of the verses seems redundant, too.)
